Another way to look at acronymsThe problem with most acronym list sites on the Internet is that they simply provide a list of all meanings for each acronym. Many acronyms can be defined in more than one way. The different possibilities almost always result in completely different meanings. Any of the various possible meanings could have been the definition that was intended by the original creator. The acronyms that are used on the Internet really need to be disambiguated, which simply means that web site acronyms are explained somehow. This can be easily done using the HTML <abbr> tag. Disambiguation of AcronymsFortunately, there is a way for acronyms to be disambiguated using established Internet standards. This site provides examples of the HTML code that can be used for acronyms in the web pages on your site. For a good example, see Content Aggregator, which uses these techniques to indicate when the acronym RSS stands for Really Simple Syndication and when it stands for RDF Site Summary.
