 the variation i learned somewhere was "wuh wuh wuh".
 
 it's about the shortest vowel sound you can use.

This is getting way off topic, and I apologize in advance.

I use "dub dub dub", which I picked up at Intel. I find it much easier to
pronounce quickly than anything that uses an approximant.

I do like "wibbly". Or "wibble". It has a nice mental representation of
what "www" looks like: a few waves.

And  now, back to your regular scheduled program.
