Check out a few stories about the puppies after the jump.

P.S. Just wanted to say thanks to everyone who shared our blog post about the live puppy cam. You guys helped give us some of our biggest numbers yet!

TIME magazine's web site:

Maybe it's the depressing economy or the end of the electrifying election season that's left viewers looking for a little cuteness to offset a malaise, but regardless, these tiny puppies are completely captivating. It's like the car accident you can't turn away from, except a lot less morbid and more adorable.

People magazine's web site:

"We've received a number of emails from people who are in hospitals battling various diseases who have told us that they look to the Shiba Inu Puppy Cam as a way to liven up their spirits," says the puppies' caretaker and videographer, who asked to remain anonymous.

The live puppy cam even made "NBC Nightly News with Brian Williams"
