An acronym is an abbreviation made up of the first letters in a phrase or name. For example ISP is the acronym for Internet Service Provider; BRB is short for Be Right Back; FYI is the acronym of For Your Information. I think you get the point, so I am not going to present any additional acronyms.

Some acronyms can be easy to understand; others can be quite difficult to figure out. Luckily enough there are specialized software applications out there that can help you figure out what an acronym means. Like for example AcronymGenie.


AcronymGenie is a desktop application that contains information on a huge list of acronyms. It put a database of acronyms and abbreviations at your fingertips so that never again will you have a problem figuring out what an acronym stands for. The acronyms and abbreviations are taken from computer-related fields including Internet, chat, programming, networking, graphics and so on.

To find out what and acronym stand for, you need only type in that acronym into AcronymGenie. If you for example type in USB, you will find out that USB stands for USB Serial Buss.

If you decide to get AcronymGenie and put it to the test, there are few other bits and pieces you need to be made aware of – relax, it’s all good stuff. First of all, you need to know that the download weighs in at less than 1MB. At such a lightweight download size, it will take but a moment to download AcronymGenie onto your computer. The installation process goes smoothly and just as fast. You can install AcronymGenie on any version of the Microsoft-developed Windows operating system, including the latest iteration, Windows 7. Once AcronymGenie is up and running, you can use it for as long as you want without paying a dime in return – the developer welcomes donations though.

AcronymGenie is an extensive database of acronyms and abbreviations that you can use free of charge on your desktop computer. In an easy to use interface, AcronymGenie presents the meaning of acronyms used on the web.

• Doesn’t let you edit entries; doesn’t let you add new entries either.
