  35. ritabby says:

    Congratulations!

    Now on to the Nobel Peace Prize. Seriously, if everyone got their daily dose of adorable peace might be possible.

  36. Buzzygirl says:

    Is anyone surprised by this award? You got my vote, because this site is the one (and I repeat!) ONE website that I simply must check each and every day — almost always before the local and world news.

    Cuteoverload.com makes me smile every day, and sometimes even many times each day. So, I conclude that the world NEEDS this blog. Stheriously. ;-)

  37. KarKar says:

    Congrats Meg, that’s wonderful!

    Although I have to confess, I love PostSecret. CO will make me go “awwww,” but PS will make me cry, take a deep breath, and force myself to have a better day.

  38. gravyboat says:

    Way to go!!!

  39. Evangeline's Staff in WI says:

    > As has been said before, “We KNEW it!” The perfect start to a day? Cuppa tea, dose of CO, then bring it on!

  40. Lillith says:

    That’s wonderful Meg, and very deserved. You, Theo and all of the others who help do so much to make this a great place.

    Though like KarKar I think PostSecret is a great site too, so I’m glad to see they were nominated.

  41. Theo says:

    [nods smugly]

  42. SeaBreeze says:

    My daughter is thrilled that you won.

  53. Carlisa says:

  57. Carlisa says:

    …And a congrats from PostSecret?! How cool is THAT? I’ll have to check that site out, too! Hi, Frank!

  58. Theo says:

    Hi, Frank TPSG! Thanks! Is this like when the other candidate calls the winner up to congratulate him (or her!) at the end of a Presidential election?… at any rate, it’s classy of you. Thanks again.

  59. Theo says:

    LOL!
    …and Hi, Carlisa.
    (btw, *I* didn’t miss Renee’s comment.)

  60. Ellie says:

    Question: Seriously. how did anyone come up with the idear of cute overload.
    Hrm…
    HEY! Lets get ridiculusly cute pictures and make everyone drool at their computers!

    Yeah, I bet thats it.

  61. Aubrey says:

    Congratulations, Meg. We who are about to die of The Cute salute you.

  62. AmyH says:

    YAY! I’m with a WEEEENER! I’m so used to being a supporter of the underdogs and the dark horses. This is a little strange to be associated with such greatness. Must.calm.nerves…

    *snorgles puppeh, huffs slepping kitteh, savors puddin*

    Ah, all better now.

  63. TAJ says:

    In honor of their success, CO will be giving all their readers a free puppy or kitten!

  64. Theo says:

    Ellie — that’s a question for Meg… but I *think* I know the actual answer. She was checking out various blog tools for a project at work, and set up a few just as experiments. Very mad scientist.
    http://mfrost.typepad.com/photos/uncategorized/eden_batki.jpg
    And, well, *this* experiment? …IT’S ALIIIIIIVE!!!

  65. viola says:

    meg-a-SQUEE!

  66. joodster says:

    Surprised? No.
    Proud? Oh yes!
    Congratulations to Meg, Theo and the cast of thousands behind the scenes.

  67. acelightning says:

    Wheeee! We did it – “we” being all of us who went and voted for CO, of course. And YOU did it, Meg and Theo and your faithful assistants, offering the entire internet pictures of adorable cuddly, funny, silly, sometimes sad, but always CUTE animals!

    Pudding for everyone!

  68. CSO says:

    Bravo Meglet + Theo! Makes me proud to be an American! Cue the Lee Greenwood!

  69. Theo says:

    CSO/Amoise — according to FatalFluffy/Kimchee, who recently moved to China, CuteOverload is allowed through the “Great Firewall” too. We’re an export!

  70. What a Fantabulous recognition of the hard work and prime quality cuteness we can find everyday at CO!! I’m a hardcore addict who doesn’t want a 12 step program – this site has put a smile on my face during some pretty rough days. And what a great way to tell the world that Americans are really nice people who know how to bring some cuteness into a world that can be pretty grim sometimes. VIVA LA PAWSA!!!

  71. Robbie says:

    Woo hoo! The award couldn’t have gone to a better blog! Pop the champagne, and let’s toast Cute Overload!

  72. Elle says:

    This shouldn’t be that much of a suprize Meg :) Who doesn’t love some ahhdorable kittehs, puppehs and other assorted cuties with a dose of hilarious?

  73. Yitzysmommie says:

    YAY!!
    Gratulations, Meg, Teho and any silent players. This is most excellent. The Qte rules.

  74. misscrisp says:

  78. Vince says:

    I second the thoughts on Nobel Peace Prize and ‘tocks up’, especially in both cases when Meg is involved.

    Those are four really beeg competitors you beat out too!

    NICE WORK MEG you deserve it tewtally!

  79. TeeJ says:

  89. Persephone says:

    Cuteoverload is my very favorite blog, including my own blogs. Partly because it helped me get my job in online marketing.

    Director of marketing: So what blogs do you read?

    Me: well, not too many… I read some of the feminist ones, I think feministing.com does a really good job. I read some that have to do with dance… and I read cuteoverload.

    Director of marketing: what’s that?

    Me: They post pictures of people’s pets with funny captions.

    Director of marketing: Oh yeah, I’ve seen that one! It’s great!

    And I got the job and am loving it! :) Also, with the help of the prosh feline companions of our friend Russell, CO helped me convince my SO to get a kitten. So CO is officially one of my best friends on teh internet. Mazel tov!
