SMD - surface mount device http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Surface-mount_device
Been experimenting with them now that I have a soldering station. Some parts are so tiny I would probably need a shot of vodka or some tranquillizer to stop my hands from shaking. Though it's still cheaper to just buy a ready made module manufactured in china than to buy the parts and assemble them yourself.

Let the Chinese children do the work, their time is less valuable than mine

lol yeah though normally it is assembled by pick and place machines and then it goes to solder ovens.. only THT parts are soldered by human... so overall it's mostly automated
