What does it mean? Who can tell?

Hi Art,

I get your point, but there is a side benefit. It teaches others to copy/paste anything they don't understand into google.

This has become one of the most valuable skills I have personally developed for online business, not just because of the benefits of understanding things, but also because of the understanding it has given me in terms of -

a) filtering search results to find the right answer

b) how search engines work

Obviously, these have knock on effects that are entirely different and help me to make money.

I've also expanded the habit and have a browser plugin that allows me to conduct a variety of 3-click searches (without any scrolling movement - eg a dictionary search) via my mouse. If I ever see an actual word I don't fully understand, I use this to develop my vocabulary.

I see many questions on here that I know from experience can be easily solved with a google search. Due to the nature of forums, I believe it's far better to learn in this manner than waiting for a bunch of replies that more often than not have promotional undertones. Of course, so do SERPs results but people are more aware of this in SERPs whereas they often fall for misinformation hand delivered by a human in a forum.

There are many other reasons why it's a good thing if online entrepreneurs learn to find their own answers to questions via search engines. I've found that if you hand answers to people on a plate without making them work/think for themselves, they invariably forget the advice - so perhaps abbreviations aren't such a bad thing.
