Really? I always thought i.e. stood for "individual example". I'm really not sure where I got that idea, now that I think about it. Thanks for the pointer.
They are Latin abbreviations. i.e. stands for "id est" meaning "that is" or "that means", e.g. stands for "exempli gratia" meaning "for the sake of example".
A mnemonic that helped me before I knew the Latin: "i.e." = "in other words".
