My favourite for this sort of thing... Wikipedia.  I've even contributed a 
few bits and pieces to two-letter and three-letter "disambiguation" pages.

Some extractions for you:

IPM may refer to:
     * Integrated Pest Management, a pest control strategy;
     * Institute for Studies in Theoretical Physics and Mathematics, a 
research institute in Iran.
     * Independence Party of Minnesota

ITA can refer to:

     * The International Olympic Committee's abbreviation for Italy
     * In the United Kingdom, the Independent Television Authority was the 
regulator for commercial television for some years.
     * The Initial Teaching Alphabet is a script intended for teaching 
children to read.
     * St Ita, an Irish nun.
     * The Illinois Trade Association.
     * The U.S. International Trade Administration.
     * Internal thoracic artery, a blood vessel in the thorax.
     * ITA Software, Inc., a travel industry software firm.
     * Aeronautics Technological Institute in São José dos Campos, Brazil.

or as Ita:

     * A fifth century Irish saint: see Saint Ides; or
     * An ethnic group in the Philippine Islands: see Aeta.
     * One of the Latin words meaning yes.

We all say Ita! to ITA!
