An acronym meaning \"Hot Song of the Minute.\" Used principally on instant messager to share with friends the song to which one is currently listening. Use of this acronym usually illustrates: 1) a fanatical devotion to music; 2) a proclivity for discussing music socially; 3) very rapidly-changing music tastes; and most of all 4) an attention-span so short that listening to even one\'s favorite song all the way through seems inconceivable. This word originated in an instant messager conversation between Maxim Mayer-Cesiano and Cyrus Habib in the fall of 2004.
