Susurrus (su-SUHR-uhs) n. A whisper or murmur. WebmasterWorld is the place to come to hear the first susurrus of a new technique or web-related rumor.

A whisper among the trees, the soft susurrus warned with a gentle voice of the gale that would soon arrive.

Funny, in portuguese we have the word "sussurro" which means exactly the same thing - never knew there was a word in english for it, other than whisper, that is.

I bet they are both latin rooted.
