I heard on the radio this morning that w00t was voted Miriam-Webster's 2007 Word of the Year. I'm sure I've typed it before (maybe in IRC?), but I never thought of myself as l33t enough to seriously use w00t! regularly. Is the word w00t going mainstream? That would be interesting to see. I wonder if l33t-speak would annoy me as much as texting shorthand. Ugh.
Last year's WotY was truthiness. I still haven't used that one in conversation. This year, W00t got more on-line votes than sardoodledom and blamestorm -neither of which have I ever used in conversation. I think I'm more likely to use the word blamestorm in conversation, though. That's more my type of word.
