GLM said “Web 2.0 appeared over 25,000 times in searches and was widely accepted, making it the legitimate, one millionth word.” Web 2.0 beat out the terms Jai ho, N00b and slumdog to take away the crown.
The terms Jai ho and slumdog came got their existance from the hit movie Slumdog Millionaire, about India’s slum dwellers.
But N00b comes from the gaming community, the company said, explaining that it is used as a disparaging term to describe a neophyte in a particular game.
