We've got two year-end lists for today, both depressing.
(Sorry, but if you want holiday cheer, try tuning in to Y92.5, where they're playing nothing but Christmas music. Oh, wait, they've laid off all the staff...Nevermind.)
Anyway, on with our Best of the "Best-of" Lists:
1. It's sad when the Word of the Year, as chosen by a vote on Merriam-Webster's Web site, is some totally made up geek speak that isn't even made up entirely of letters. It's"w00t" - a gamer's exhortation that means the same thing as "yea!" We say, nay.
But the rest of the online dictionary's Top 10 was interesting. We love the inclusion of the word "blamestorming."
2. The newspaper industry publication Editor & Publisher announced its Top 10 stories.
The good news: The massive industry job cuts wasn't No. 1. It finished second behind Rupert Murdoch (pitcured) buying the Wall Street Journal. Thanks, Rup.
