What are Cookies

The most common meaning of “Cookie” on the Internet refers to a piece of information sent by a Web Server to a Web Browser that the Browser software is expected to save and to send back to the Server whenever the browser makes additional requests from the Server.

Depending on the type of Cookie used, and the Browsers’ settings, the Browser may accept or not accept the Cookie, and may save the Cookie for either a short time or a long time.

40 Common Internet Acronyms You Should Know

Let’s take a look at the ever-growing lexicon of common Internet acronyms.

Acronyms are not the same thing as abbreviations. Acronyms are comprised of the initials of two or more words (e.g. LOL for Laugh Out Loud, PC for Personal Computer), whereas abbreviation is the short form of a single word (e.g. Approx. for Approximately). You will come across acronyms in almost every domain of the internet: from social networking sites like Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram to any website, blogs or forums and even emails. So it is really handy if we are familiar with them.
