With our current series on "how to build a website” in full swing, we thought it would be appropriate to include this useful site explaining all of those crazy abbreviations, terms, words and phrases most non-techies aren't familiar with. Andy's Web Tools is a blog with a ton of cool features and advice for various DIY projects. This particular piece breaks down frequently-encountered web terms such as URL (which, by the way, stands for "Uniform Resource Locator” - and if you still have no idea what that means then you are definitely in the right place!) and tells you what they stand for along with a definition, the significance and some helpful examples. tinyurl.com/3ppam7h
