Whuddleworld – TY Beanie Babies Needs To Buy This

Beanie BAbiesWebKinz are those furry little stuffed animals you buy for $12.95 at the store — they fly off shelves, or they were — I see them everywhere now. Remember Beanie Babies — these are those, but with an Internet spin to them (you get a digital code; go online; and your stuffed animal is online and you take care of it — it’s alive!).

Anyhow, TY must be hurting, BAD. TY [maker of Beanie Babies] needs a strategy — an online one, to make their Beanie Babies move.

Well, if they could morph this site a tiny bit — this is the answer, in my opinion: Whuddleworld is for sale.

    Nice call – saw the world up for sale post on techcrunch, and thought ‘big deal’. This would be a perfect coming together.
    Another option would be for some fairtrade coffee seller to buy it. Inside the world the local coffee growers get nicer hats and bigger houses every time you buy ethical coffee. You get to hang out with them! They walk around saying ‘Steve bought our coffee – he the man!’.
    Or is it just me that would find that fun?

    If I had an extra 30M or so I’d buy them both and take on Disney and their stupid Penguins!
