Do you know what the Word of the Year (2007) is?

Truthiness is a rather cute word, but as the English prof said, w00t appeals to much to small a community to represent a whole nation. If a country is going to waste time chosing a word of the year, in my opinion, it should be as thoughtfully chosen as the state flowers or birds, or even the US Eagle, which had Benjamin Franklin had his way would have been a turkey instead. It should be a lofty and respectable word that represents all of the people, or at very least something that all of the people could, or would, or should aspire to be, such as "courageous" or considering the people are getting all revved up for a new election, how about "mellifluous"--!?

I had no idea that was a "real" word! I see it on Squidoo occasionally, in a comment or in a note from Squidoo. I thought they made it up, sort of like how they made up Squidoo, with the double-o's. Word of the year, though. That's pretty amazing since probably at bare minimum most of the older half of the population has never even heard of it before. I think "work" should be the word of the year. Get off those video games and get some work done, kiddos!

I would want to change that to lol. Lots of Laughs. I read this phrase every where I go in the internet. I think it should be the word of the 007. I read the post to your link and I can't find anywhere what those letters mean. Do you know what they mean? Can you share it with me so I understand more why they picked this word. I can't believe this would even make an article. I guess people have to find something to write about.
