xD hahaha froflroflorlf ... <.< ... shit!
xD anyways, i think there's many levels of leet speak.. there's the old style which was replacing letters with other symbols. Then now evolved into a sort of piss take of idiots online who're total noobs and such and now replaces syllables or letters with other letters which have the same pronunciation.. eenta0rwebz0r would also be considered a variant of what swabs said.
It's called the interweb now. Internet is OLD.
LOLOLOLOLOLLOLOLOLOLOLIPOPZ!
An intraweb is a web comprising all HTTP nodes on an intranet; synonyms are corporate web, internal web.
Very often the term intranet refers only to the most visible service i.e. the internal websites. In fact for a large portion, intranets are solely relying on World Wide Web software. More than just a play on the word 'Internet', the word intranet was formed from the prefix intra-, meaning "inside, within", plus net, an abbreviation of 'network'. Likewise, 'intraweb' is formed from the prefix intra- plus web and thus refers to web sites that are only accessible to people within a specific group, organization or community. Nowadays, most large companies have intrawebs as part of their internal information system.

The term interweb originated as the hacker culture responded to the ever-increasing influx of inexperienced users to the Internet's forums and chat rooms. Whereas the Internet had previously been the exclusive domain of the tech-savvy, it was now attracting millions of newcomers (newbies) who were now participating in it (often with poor netiquette). Referring to the Internet as the interweb mocks the inexperience and ignorance of these newcomers, whose lack of understanding of the workings of the 'net would often amuse or annoy the more experienced.
I should check wikipedia more. Very helpful stuff really, thanks Sam!
Thanks Sam,
That's a werid deffinition for IntraWEB I've never heard anyone call and intranet that.
Regardless. As Shurai and I figured it appears that it went from being a mocking term, to a real thing.
Haha no problems.
I knew Intraweb was real....interweb is just a joke kinda.
Had to look some of that up xD
i use it :|
But only when im making fun of people who cant spell.
Eg. "LAIK PHWOAR! TEH INTERWEEEEB"
