NetLingo on The Martha Stewart Show

If you haven't seen Erin's appearance on The Martha Stewart Show yet (it aired in April and in July, 2010), watch it here:

Watch NetLingo founder Erin Jansen discuss texting on the Martha Stewart show!

You'll hear us discuss the new NetLingo book "The List" and the new NetLingo iPhone app "The List!" With more than 82 million people communicating regularly via text messages, and with limits imposed on the length of texts, these messages rely heavily on shorthand. But what does it all mean? Erin offers Martha some some basic translation:

* 143: I Love You
* 2moro: Tomorrow
* 2nite: Tonight
* 411: Information
* B4N: Bye for Now
* BITD: Back in the Day
* BFF: Best Friends Forever
* BRB: Be Right Back
* BTW: By the Way
* FTF: Face-to-Face
* IRL: In Real Life
* JK: Just Kidding
* LOL: Lots of Laughs
* NBD: No Big Deal
* NP: No Problem or Nosy Parents
* OMG: Oh My God
* OT: Off Topic
* POV: Point of View
* RT: Real Time
* TMI: Too Much Information
* TTYL: Talk to You Later

Be sure and watch the show, it was a good thing!
Get "The List" book and iPhone app in the NetLingo Shop here ;-)
AMBW,
Erin
