Alphabet Soup Unraveled

We've all had this experience: you're having what you consider an intelligent conversation with someone you don't know all that well except in a professional sense. All of a sudden the other person slips in an acronym that you've never heard and, worse, you don't stop the conversation in its tracks to ask the meaning of the acronym. Coming to the aid of everyone who's come across an acronym but doesn't know what it might mean is the website Acronyma. Go ahead, learn the difference between SGML and XML. Great site for those of us who aren't using a PDA or prefer PURLs to pearls.
