Acronyms


                  Acronym is a word formed from the initial letters of a multi-word name. It may be in
                  the form of an abbreviation like HTML (Hyper Text Markup Language) or more than
                  one letter from some words like COBOL (Common Business Oriented Language).

                  The use of acronyms became popular with the concept of Short Message Service
                  or SMS. Acronyms works like shorthand for Internet users as it saves typing time.

                  Some of the common acronyms used in Internet communication are:

                  Netiquettes


                  Etiquettes are the rules that are expected to be followed while meeting others or
                  communicating with others. In online communication, you may not be face to face
                  with the person. There may be a situation when the person may misunderstand

                  your remark. In order to avoid misunderstanding, a set of rules have been designed
                  which are expected to be followed during online conversation. This set of rules is
                  known as Netiquettes. It basically stands for Network Etiquettes.
                  Some common netiquettes are:

                        The subject of email must be in relation to the matter of the email.

                        Signatures in an email should be small and simple.
