Cheeseburger Anyone?

In 2007, Eric Nakagawa and his girlfriend started the icanhascheezburger.com website.  Within a year, the website was getting as many as 2 million hits per day according to Wikipedia.  The site is a WordPress blog that features funny pictures of cats with intentionally misspelled humorous captions.  There are often recurring themes in these captions, such as the caption “oh hai.”  The site fosters a community feel through interaction via a rating system, which uses a scale of 1 to 5 cheeseburgers.  Users also have the option to make their own LOL by uploading a picture (or selecting a previous one) and giving it a caption.  Ultimately, the creators of the website sold the blog for 2 million dollars.
