AutomatedBuildings.com Review - Intelligent-Building-Dictionary.com

This is just what we have all been looking for, a dictionary that defines all those annoying acronyms and initialisms we all use but nobody is sure what they stand for. Chuck Ehrlich, CTO of Building Intelligence Group, (that is correct Chuck not Paul (Paul's brother) of www.BuildingIntelligenceGroup.com has taken on the task of adding English subtitles to Paul's everyday words and annoying acronyms / initialisms. He has even turned it into a book as well as an online resource. This attractive soft covered book is a great companion at your desk, but I find the online version even more useful and have bookmarked it for quick reference. One of the best things about this virtual and real paper back dictionary is its ability to grow. Chuck has included in its design a Suggest feature that allows input to suggest additions or changes. All messages are reviewed by an editor before they appear online. In this manner we all as an industry can make our dictionary stronger and more complete.
