some new e-acronyms

hufffff, got bored typing "stay in touch" and "keep in touch" in many
of mails.. here, i am just suggesting some arconyms to replace it..


SIT = "Stay In Touch"
KIT = "Keep in Touch"

Since I talked about acronym, I want to mention here, how acronyms differ
from abbreviations...

acronym : Short form, formed from the First letters of a compound term.

abbreviation : short form of a compound term.. does not have specific rule
of formation.

eg :

WHO (World Health Organization is an example of acronym)
etc. (etcetra, is an example of abbreviation).

so, acronym is a special case of abbreviation...

name where i am brought, in fact, the place where
i am built.
