LOL Cats Bring in Laugh Out Loud Money

We’re still a little tipsy from last night’s outing following the conclusion of yesterday’s An Event Apart here in Chicago (which was wonderful), so apologies in advance for the rampant misspellings and run-on sentences, not to mention the odd topics. For instance, would a fully sober person of any sort of right mind post this story in Ad Age about the success of the LOL Cats phenomenon? Maybe, once they’d had a shocked to their system learning that the wonderfully stupid site receives around “500,000 page views a day” and each of their ads fetch “between $500 and $4,000 for week long placements.”
