World Wide Wait
The real meaning of WWW.

CGI Joe
A hard-core CGI script programmer with all the social skills and
charisma of a plastic action figure.

to access can't be located.

Egosurfing
Scanning the net, databases, print media, or research papers
looking for the mention of your name.

borrowed from web browsers).
