comScore Scores on SnuggieSightings.com
So I ran across an excellent article by Sarah Radwanick on comscore.com. She covers the popularity of the Snuggie, and is cool enough to be pictured reading and typing on a laptop at the same time. Sarah could not do this in a soul-crushing, restrictive blanket.
What drew me to your article Sarah (she will find this of interest, from a comScore-ish perspective) was a Google Alert that triggered for the term “Celebrity Snuggie Sightings”. Although she didn’t point to this post about the Today Show Snuggie Sightings, I was jazzed over this particular word choice “Snuggie Sightings” in her article. It was of interest to me because back on January 10 when I had the idea for this site, I performed a search on Google for the term “Snuggie Sighting” and there was Nada. To see this term being used out in the jet stream of our culture is kind of cool.
Thanks, Sarah, for letting me post your pic. I’m tagging this as a “Celebrity Snuggie Sighting” so when someone searches in the future, you’ll be right up there with Al Roker. Awesome. And seriously, great article (I’m way into Search Marketing). And just so you know, Sarah, since this site’s inception, traffic from Search Engines has been 14.52% (I am surprised by how low this is). And yes, I’m totally trying to get Sarah to write about my site, because 46.42% of my traffic comes from referring sites.
Life and Style in a Snuggie
Annie and Lainey sent in these pics.
Nothing helps an outfit come together quite like the Snuggie. These ladies from the University of Miami, Ohio are ready for the runwalk in their Snuggies (don’t trip over them!)
The ladies tried the backward Snuggie…and I think they pulled it off.
Snuggie of Liberty
“Give me your tired, your poor,
Your huddled masses yearning to be free from the blanket,
The wretched refuse of your teeming shore.
Send these, the sleeveless, tempest-tost to me,
I lift my ceramic duck beside the golden door.”
