I have a fairly poor memory when it comes to memorizing shortcuts, passwords and all things acronym.

Tech has SO many of these that I finally decided it would just be best to list them all here and I will reference them when my memory fails me.

I'll be adding to this list from time to time so feel free to comment your own abbreviated tech-related jargon and I'll add it to the list below. Each term is linked to its Wikipedia page for a quick reference.
