"Tab" is short for tablature, a method of music notation for fretted string instruments.
Instead of traditional Western music notation which uses a staff to represent the relative "highness" or "lowness" of pitches, tablature actually represents the individual strings of the instrument, with a number or letter indicating the fret to be pressed for each note. Tablature is most associated with guitar today, but actually dates back to the Renaissance lute and related instruments. Tablature may also be used by mandolin, Ukulele, etc.
Tablature has the advantage of being able to indicate not only what notes to play, but how to finger them, which is critical for learning complex guitar licks; thus its popularity in the self-teaching guitar community. It is also easier to write and share without specialized music publishing software.
