Wired magazine has been keeping a close eye on the latest Web 2.0 jargon... here are some emerging buzzwords that could be coming to a water cooler conversation near you:
Frolleague - a work colleague you've accepted as a friend on Facebook; this can be a dangerous relationship when a frolleague who is also a supervisor stumbles upon compromising information
Twiller - a thriller novel that takes place via the micro-blogging tool Twitter; apparently twillers are massive in Japan with readers eager to consume 140 character story installments
Sound blasts - a 10 minute plus snippet of newsmaker statements; this updating of the traditional sound-bite was popularised by Obama via YouTube during the US elections
