Got a new web word– AFK

AFK — Away From Keyboard

Today when I watching the War 3 game videos on the tudou.com. A new word was heard during the waiting time. It said someone is AFK, then they had to set up the game again.

I was puzzle about this new word and search it through google :cool:

Oh~ I see. AFK is brought from WOW (World of Warcraft). And now it becomes very popular that we can say “I have got a call, AFK for a moment” :grin:
