The VIP DL is OD so move the ETA PDQ.

Huh?

Acronyms are nice when making quick notes, but past that they become cumbersome and confusing. Some are well known, but most leave people with spinning heads and the alphabet dancing a jig in their mind.

This is when the Acronym Finder steps in to save the day.

The Acronym Finder describes itself as "a world wide web searchable database of more than 285,000 abbreviations and acronyms about computers, technology, telecommunications, and military acronyms and abbreviations."

The Web site is a quick way to work through the many acronyms and abbreviations in the world today. Just put the acronym in the search engine, and it will give you a listing of all the possible phrases for which it might stand. The Web site even offers users the option of adding the engine to their Internet Explorer web browser.

Even with as many acronyms as it has, it encourages users to submit new ones and help make certain it is the most comprehensive listing possible.

The Acronym Finder is interesting and useful. It takes the mystery out of all those random letters that float around in conversations. Check it out… ASAP.
