Poll question: How do you pronounce WWW?

Usually an abrieviation shortens the pronunciation of a word. But WWW has more sylables than World Wide Web.

6. (Double U)³

I have a thing about "Dubbaya dubbaya dubbaya." I hate it. A real pet peeve for me especially when you hear it by a professional broadcaster who should know better. Listen to the good ones sometimes. That "Double U double U double U" just rolls off their tongue and you never even notice it. It's a tongue twister to be sure, but I hate the dubbaya thing so much I spent quite a bit of time just practicing it until it sounded completely natural.
