In the early 1800s, a scuttlebutt was a cask on a ship that contained the freshwater for that day's usage by the sailors and crew. Over time, the scuttlebutt was replaced by a drinking fountain. (Or, in an office it could be the water cooler.) In either case, it had the effect of bringing people together to talk about the events of the day.
Today, just as with the office water cooler, social media and online venues often facilitate the same news and gossip functions of a scuttlebutt. In short, they bring people together to talk about what's going on and who is doing what. This became known as "the scuttlebutt."
