w00t - Word of the Year

(Springfield, Massachusetts) The publishers of Merriam-Webster's Dictionary have selected "w00t" as the word of the year for 2007. The combination of letters and numbers are an exclamation of happiness.

It was chosen because it blends whimsy and technology says M-W's prez, John Morse.

There's no word yet about whether we'll see a happiness business endeavor called "w00ters!"
