"w00t!" is a popular descendent of the informal interjections "Whoomp" and "Whoot", used to express joy or elation. Compare "Yippee!"
The terms rose to popularity in two 1993 rap / hip-hop tracks from "95 south" and "tag team", entitled "Whoot (There it is)" and "Whoomp (there it is)" respectively.
