Just go to the actual site! There's live cams of them frolicking.

Now I just have to find a way to run these streams side by side the kitty cams and then I'll never ever have another productive minute in front of my computer again.

I couldn't get the videos to work in Firefox, but they worked in Chromium...

Strikes me as an epic publicity stunt. But they are cute.

Brilliant advertising ploy; it seems kind of stupid that they aren't using this opportunity to push HTML5 / Ogg Theora video.

The team working on it tried to, however it unfortunately wasn't technically feasible (on the server side, at this scale). The pre-made videos all use HTML5 video tags, however.

Good thing they had that trademark problem. Adopting a phoenix would have been tricky. Also, d'aww.

Dear God! Hacker news has really gone to the dogs (or is that cubs?)
