By the way, I was recalling early posts about PNLK, and I remember the night I made up B2B to describe business to business in a shorthand manner. I posted the abbreviation in a post on Clearstation, where I said..

"There is a new site due in early april, developed by Click, it is their third version, and it is supposed to be a big improvement in facilitating business to business (B2B) commerce and communications. The company has VERY bold & courageous ideas with first class people and facilties to make it happen. Hard to say how high this can go when it starts... depends how long it takes to get the B2B sector ahead of the retail sector. "

and then again a month later I used it again in another post...

"I have been with this stock for 6 months plus, and it should perform well at LEAST through April. New web site (version 3) will be up by probably mid april, a banking deal is almost finished and they will be one of the sponsoring businesses at the International Business Expo on April 21. Lots of press and news and the stock should keep climbing. Yes, I believe in this new business to business (what I coined B2B) sector, and think it will be bigger than the internet retail commerce or gaming in the future"

This was the first use of the term B2B as far as I know, and I wish I had a copyright on it for all the times it got used after that.

Anyone else know of any other documented use of the term before mine? I know I never say anyone use it, I made it up to save typing time and to sound a little more impressive, I guess.

Funny how fast stuff can catch on...
