Webkinz has done something quite amazing. It has more visitors than Club Penguin. If you don't know, Club Penguin is a pretty cool online site to play around. I like it, but it looks like Webkinz is that much more popular!
Disney bought Club Penguin for $350 million with an option for the price to top $700 million. Does this mean Webkinz may be bought for a lot more? Maybe so!

Webkinz toys are the hottest items since tickle me elmo and beanie babies. There are several news articles coming out everyday! Local stores are constantly selling out of these cuddly creatures.
Advertising Age talks about the owners of Sweet Be's Candy & Gifts in suburban St. Louis. They say that their staff has doubled in the past six months and added a second phone line just to cope with the requests for Webkinz.
Amazing!
The popularity of Webkinz seems to be going up and up everyday. Who knows when it'll peak! I guess we'll just have to find out.
