“Internet Talk?”

“Internet talk?” Abbreviation? Why do people use this? A faster way of giving someone a message? I wonder why, I can barely understand some things people say. I never use this kind of language, at least, hardly. Have you ever seen me write on a post: hi. This is Green-flamingo. R u duing well??? I don’t think you have seen me write that way and I’m not planning to start. But this question of why people use this so commonly still lurks in my mind. I understand in some cases, but one day someone at school asked, ” Could I type this poem in Internet talk?” To me that seemed weird, peculiar indeed! That is how I got the name for this other form of grammar, which I hope won’t take over the world. I don’t know if there is a real name for this, and “Internet talk” is actually something else entirely. But that’s what I’m going to call it for now.
