Woot!

Woot... someone recently tweeted the question "What does 'woot' mean?" well... Hmm... from what I can tell "Woot" is the written form of the sound we all used to make with that ridiculous arm swinging Arsenio Hall motion we all used to imitate back in the early 90s.  It is an expression of joy, can be and has been used with sarcasm.  And for now, thanks to a dear Stylin' friend of mine is a common word in my vocabulary both online and in the flesh.  


But Woot! is actually also a really cool website I've become an obsessive watcher of lately.  Woot.com is a unique site... offering one and only one item for sale each day at ridiculously low prices.  I like spunky web peeps too... people who are creative in their faq's make me smile... for example... 

What is Woot and who's behind it?

Woot.com is an online store and community that focuses on selling cool stuff cheap. It started as an employee-store slash market-testing type of place for an electronics distributor, but it's taken on a life of its own. We anticipate profitability by 2043 – by then we should be retired; someone smarter might take over and jack up the prices. Until then, we're still the lovable scamps we've always been.

Now, not everything up for sale on Woot! can be considered a savvy purchase (b/c who needs to spend $$ on junk you don't need?) but if you're in the market for say a Kodak 12 Megapixel Digital Camera with 5x Optical Zoom
 and Woot.com's item of the day is an amazingly priced Kodak 12 Megapixel Digital Camera with 5x Optical Zoom with free shipping, then by all means click the "I want one!" button and see if you're one of the lucky ones to get it before it's gone! 


If nothing else it will be a bright spot in your day... cute website... good blog, and who couldn't use one more good blog to read right?  And you just might walk away with a great deal!!


Stay Savvy people.
