I agree with the first commenter, jargons like this common acronyms (ICT, etc.) are only widely known to and used by a fraction of the population that work or deal with the industry indicated in this article. Hence, it will be best to “expand” what these acronyms stand for (at the very first part when they are mentioned) when writing articles that can be read by other people from other groups/industry.
This is more like a way of respecting and educating your readers all the while keeping them to come back again for noteworthy and reliable tech news.
I have been a silent reader of your blog since 2008 and it is the only Filipino tech blog that I check online everyday first, second, or third thing in the morning. Give us a favor on this one. I wish you all the best. Take care always.
Not common like FYI I guess.
When writing something like this, don’t assume we know what the acronyms stand for! What the heck is ICT!
ICT is a pretty common acronym (Information Communication Technology) just like BPO and IT so we did thought everybody knew about it.
Did thought talaga?
