Please excuse my lack of "online" knowledge because I'm not a "chat" guru.
I've read many posts online where people use abbreviations and don't have a clue what they mean. I don't personally use many abbreviations myself.
Here is one example in this forum: IMHO. What does it stand for, "in my home office"? :confused:
Please list any other abbreviations that you think are worth to know. ;)
Thank you for sharing your valuable knowledge.

IMHO
An abbreviation for in my humble opinion, this term is used in various online communications, such as e-mail messages or postings to newsgroups or BBSs; it usually appears in brackets like this: <IMHO>. Using this term is a way of making sure that others understand that you are merely expressing your opinion on a debatable subject without passing judgement.

That's what it says: Type It In Google And See.
This is a shortcut.
Type some thing like hotmail in the address bar then press Ctrl+Enter.
It adds "www." and ".com" to the end.

WTF is my personal favourite, only because one of my colleagues once came into the office and demanded angrily;
