    meanings

    have you had a non-tech ask what an acronym stood for, and didn't want to look stupid because you didn't know. Like, "Whats a TWAIN Device?"

    Now you can give tools without an important name...important sounding names:

    Transmitted Windowing Analog Imaging Node


    maybe you just wanted to find the hidden meaning of your name:

    Tedob1 = Turbo Environment Dynamic Option Bit 1


    Maybe your trying to find the meaning of life:

    Life = Large Integrated File Equipment


    or just want to amuse a sick mind like mine:

    Fully-Upgradable Converter Key


    then heres the place to get your answers:

    just enter a word and click:

    Quitmzilla is a firefox extension that gives you stats on how long you have quit smoking, how much money you\'ve saved, how much you haven\'t smoked and recent milestones. Very helpful for people who quit smoking and used to smoke at their computers... Helps out with the urges.

    Tedob's link is great for such acronyms as WLAN (Windowing Library Access Node), but for people's names use the Cyborger..:

    1337: not _that_ modem, I was talking about Micro-Option Dynamic Environment Mode you fool!
