The history is interesting.
I think it was that American comic... MegaTokyo that made it popular. (I never really read it before.)
I don't classify it as 'txt talk', but I honestly think that it shouldn't be used. Nowadays, especially on gaia, people use it to look cute, and I hate it. I roleplay, and more and more threads, especially the literate ones, use 1337 5P34K in the titles.
It's ruining grammar and isn't something that should be integrated into everyday speech. As everyone else has agreed, it's a code. I wouldn't suddenly insert '110001101' just because I decided I wanted to put binary in my sentences. If it had a context, yes, but the way people use it nowadays is almost identical to 'txt talk'.

X_Simply-Perfect_X Isn't it meant to be 1337? Well, it is not what I would class as txttlk, but it isn't exactly good English and/or correct grammar. You don't find people talking ini 1337 5P34K in real life do you? I have to agree with what Niccea Majeare said. Regardless of whether it is txttlk or not, it's just as bad, if not worse. Sadly, the "leet speak in real life" topic is wrong. I had a boyfriend who would piss me off by speaking in leet to one of his close friends. He would do this by saying the numbers to spell out the words and using French or Spanish letters when letters were to be used. "One three three seven dash five pay three four ka, space at [@] line backslash line egrek [Y- in French] zero line backslash line three?" It bugged the crap out of me. . . but he knew the names of all the little punctuation marks that no one really knew what they were called. (And, for those of you who didn't figure that out, it says, "1337-5P34K, @||Y0||3?" or "Leet-speak, anyone?" He was one of those people who could do it off the top of his head out of nothing without taking a lot of time to think or anything so I guess he gets props for that. . . but it was still annoying.
