zB = zum Beispiel = for example

usw = und so weiter = and so forth

etc = etcetera = and so forth

we love shortings too

of course; all of these are very much pre-Internet ones and don't correspond to any Internet slang in English

Et cetera is latin and "etc" is commonly used in English and quite a few other languages as well.
