"The trend has baffled but intrigued language experts, who say the terms could be a way for internet users to demonstrate their understanding of web culture. "

yeah, I know.  It's just wierd to think that ANYONE, expert or not, would study internet trends.  It's a damn shame really, that there are intelligent people out there, who could probably contribute something positive to society instead are doing "studies" on the most irrelevant and incidental shit in the world.

EDIT: word usage.

The internet is a microcosm of the world and its history. Because of the speed of the digital world change/evolution can be monitored over a shorter period of time. LOLcats, or more specifically the formation of leetspeak gives an insight into the origins and diversity of language itself. The same applies for culture.
