What do the acronyms mean?
About the common acronyms in use in the TechIMO, I can guess a few like,
  • BTW - By the way
  • IMO - In my opinion
  • IMHO - In my humble/honest opinion
  • TIA - Thanks in advance
There are a few others which I am unable to guess. LOL is one of em. I see 'LOL' very often. What does that mean??

Please add others, so that I may fully enjoy the forum.

TIA
DSJ
