	Talk:Three-letter acronym - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Would C2C be considered a TLA or a "three character acronym/abbreviation" considering the digit contained in it.
		Most of those types of codes are three letter codes, for example, all ISO 4217 (currency codes) are three letter abbreviations and the same holds for the IATA airport codes and the IOC codes.
		Additionally, "acronym" is a shorter word than "abbreviation" and has fewer syllables (three versus five).

	Another TLA And All Its Hype - 3/1/2005 - Wireless Week - CA506406
		TLA stands for a "Three-Letter Acronym." There is a plethora of TLAs along with acronyms of four, five or more letters.
		TLAs and the others are usually thought up by the folks working on a new technology, concept or device, and their use tends to spread like wildfire, especially at industry conferences.
		Skepticism is a healthy reaction to promises that are made, demos that are performed in controlled environments and technologies that might not truly be ready for prime time.

	Three-letter acronym -
		The TLA (three-letter acronym or three-letter abbreviation) is a TLA and is the most popular type of abbreviation in technical terminology, and is also very common in general language.
		TLA is a three-letter abbreviation itself; the term was almost certainly coined with a certain degree of self-referential humor in mind.
		Since TLA can also stand for "two-letter acronym", it is ambiguous; the abbreviation 3LA or the term trigram can be used instead.

	BBC - h2g2 - Acronyms
		But note that the most common definition of TLA is still 'Three Letter Acronym' - and as such it is mis-applied in the vast majority of cases (PCI, VGA, CGI - more, indeed, than you can poke a stick at).
		Acronyms are a handy way of abbreviating the alphabet soup which is science, technology and politics; instead of having to pronounce either the names of the letters (as in GWR - Great Western Railway) or the full name of the organisation or object, we have a single short word.
		An early recursive acronym, dating back to the early 1960s, is Mung: 'Mung Until No Good', the process of rewriting a large and complex piece of code until it becomes both unrecognisable and dysfunctional.

	[SCR] A guide to Riggers (ID:4)
		The result was a weak piece of shit unable to do even the most rudimentary tasks because he was so crap in all three areas.
		If you have fewer the rigger cannot be able to adapt to some situations where he will be forced to use a different class of vehicle to what he usually uses.
		However when i'm talking about high attributes you must remember that riggers are a skill orientated archetype, and that concentrating on attributes would mean that other areas, more important to a rigger, could be left weaker than intended.

	Human Assets: Investigating Employee Relationship Management - Computer Business Review
		Indeed, there is still genuine debate over whether ERM exists or if it is just another three-letter acronym that IT buyers can do without, especially with many still struggling with CRM itself.
		But while ERM detractors agree wholeheartedly with the concept behind improving employee relationships, none believe that another acronym is required to do that.
		But perhaps even more so, given that ERM is still such a nascent market for which it is difficult to find any solid market-size figures and growth predictions.
