    I've now moved the thread back to GD though, so errr...w00t?

    Haha!

    By the way, nobody actually says "W00t!" out loud, do they? Internerd speak is only for typing, right? ;P

    I say w00t out loud. In certain circles obviously.

    Interstorming - a collection of people discussing ideas over the internet. I coined it the other night when we were organising next weekends raving session.

    "I facebooked Sarah the other day and posted a comment on her wall, but she has yet to reply to my comment."

    Probably because he used facebook as a verb and she put him on ignore.

    Christ woot was being used back in 2000 when I was part of a UT team. It must be older than that. Just goes to show that the internet has been taken over by 13 year olds spouting crap on WoW. Thank Blizzard for the ignore function.

    It was around even earlier than that - its in the bible.

    Matthew: 16 - As soon as Jesus was baptized, he went up out of the water. At that moment heaven was opened, and he saw the Spirit of God descending like a dove and lighting on him. And a voice from heaven said, "This is my Son, whom I love; with him I am well pleased. w00t!"
