I thought this was neat: "Choosing the word of the year is incredibly difficult," said McKean. "Not
just because of the enormous amount of data we look at ... but because everyone has such strong opinions about what makes a word Word of the Year material. You'd be amazed at how hard our editors campaign for their favorites. I'm surprised nobody tried to bribe me -- except that the only
thing I really want is more cool new words!"

She's fun, and you can listen to her here, interview (although it doesn't seem to be working for me), and here listings.
