I've been wondering if there's a Spanish version of "LOL" or "IDK" and things like that or if it's not something that's used?

You might be interested in this piece I wrote concerning this issue, based on the fact that there didn't seem to be a centralized answer to how it all works.

Enjoy!

My friends have pretty much adopted the English shortcuts, which I think are becoming a universal language.

I don't know any Spanish "net-terms", really...
