Flight Management System? False Memory Syndrome? Flash Media Server?
I dunno, none of those seem to fit....

If I hover my mouse pointer over the acronym (handily underlined with dots), I am enlightened.

Victory of common sense over QUANGO-babble.
The village bicycle that is Paris Hilton is to be used at one's discretion.... no change there then.

well, if you look at it, it has a slight dotted line under it. hover over it the full wording comes up either in the status bar in opera or as a tool tip in firefox. if you are still using IE then you dont deserve to know what it means.
for those of you who dont know, but give 2 hoots, how this is done - its the semantic tag <abbr> and its title attribute.
Nice to see that you guys are using nice web standards :D

Although I hate the term 'ICT', it is a widely used acronym, used in business, unlike mobe and lappy which are just... stupid. To further the point, you wouldn't use LOL in a business paper or serious news article, but you would use TWAIN, as although it's stupid, it has a technical meaning.

Unless you're reading it as an RSS feed in Thunderbird, in which case there is no dotted line ;o) I still have no clue what it means!

Pop open the page source. It's rude. Hint: spoon.

our IT dept had the e-mail signature
ICT - Innovate... Change... Transform
We became so sick of this that some of us changed it to the more realistic
ICT - Interfere... Confuse... Terminate
Glad to see IT back again.

TLA, WTF, FMS and OMG are initialisms, not acronyms. FFS.
