SMS is one way that youth can express who they are, text messaging is definitely a new way for youth to connect. Many say that text messaging is bad for youth because it disconnects them from social development in the "real" i.e. verbal, sense. However, text messaging is a vehicle that helps youth express themselves in ways they never have before.Its just a mode of communication.....and not the way to learn language

well well....whoever said so dat learnin a new language makes u 4get the old ones.....
its totally upon u dude.... its like a fashion trend...u can hate it u can like like it but not escape it....
if u incoporate it in ur life as 2nd language its good....and if it can be used for business meets someday im pretty sure u (or any1 for that matter) wud'nt budge and fret on it and use it without remebering this post u typed for us......

i think the sms culture is good,,as the woed itself says short message,,,but i think 1 shud know how and where to use these short words...if u r saying tht in paper students use this language so its their mistake,,,they shud hv presence of mind atleast in paper,,they cnt b so absent minded tht they can use short language wherever they wnt..so its all abt the way a person uses it..
