Tag it with Your Smile

You guys help to fill our blogs with posts we know will make people smile every day. So we figured, why not let you show your smiles instead of just hitting the “Like” button?

Now you can tag any post with a photo of your smile, right from the bottom of each post. It’s a better way of showing what you like online. You can even unlock a new Cheezburger trophy when you use Smile Tagging.

Whatever you decide to use it for, try it now. Go on – get smiling.

    Ben Huh Joins the Animated Celeb club with Zuckerberg and Jobs

    It’s official – Ben Huh and the Cheezburger Network have made it to the Big Leagues. Today, Next Media Animation, known for posting animated videos satirizing Steve Jobs and Mark Zuckerberg, uploaded this clip of Ben Huh in a “behind the scenes” look at the inner workings of the Cheezburger Network. When asked what he thought of the video Ben responded, “Given our line of work, we’re all for laughing at ourselves and we’re honored to have made it to this level, we only object to hitting kitties — even if it’s animated satire.”
