Code:
<b> This makes bold </b>

Code:
<strong> This makes bold too </strong>


In practice, they look 100% the same, just different code?
What is the difference, and in which situation do you use the first instead of the second, and reversed?

This is the example I'm talking about

The same with:
Code:
<abbr title="What it means">Short Version</abbr>

Code:
<acronym title="Description">MiniText/Words</acronym>

The also do the same?

But, then what's the point of making those commands, if they are a total copy of another? Just takes more time to write (only seconds, but still?)

Strong is a "phrase element", meant to apply to a paragraph. B is a "font style element". Really there is no practical difference, except: "Speech synthesizer user agents may change the synthesis parameters, such as volume, pitch and rate accordingly." based on Phrase Elements, while there is no note like that for font style elements. See http://www.w3.org/TR/html401/index/elements.html.

Other Question:
"The ABBR and ACRONYM elements allow authors to clearly indicate occurrences of abbreviations and acronyms. Western languages make extensive use of acronyms such as "GmbH", "NATO", and "F.B.I.", as well as abbreviations like "M.", "Inc.", "et al.", "etc.". Both Chinese and Japanese use analogous abbreviation mechanisms, wherein a long name is referred to subsequently with a subset of the Han characters from the original occurrence. Marking up these constructs provides useful information to user agents and tools such as spell checkers, speech synthesizers, translation systems and search-engine indexers."
