Ninjas Taking Over

The hilarious "Ask a Ninja" series from Ask.com has been getting bigger and bigger.  The series won a Webby Award last week and was featured on NPR on Monday, giving the nation's intellectual elite a major WTF moment.

In the NPR interview (you can hear it here), co-creator Kent Nichols explains that "Ask a Ninja" gets as many or more viewers than many cable TV shows.  In fact, the Ninjas recently beat Adult Swim in their target demographic.  Pretty impressive for a low-budget online video series shot in Nichols' apartment.  I imagine that anyone who had a TV series canceled this spring (I'm talking about you, Aaron Sorkin) would want to jump off a bridge after realizing how successful this has become:

Thanks for the shout out!

Just a few factual corrections.

Ask.com is merely our current sponsor, it does not produce Ask A Ninja. It is produced by myself, Douglas Sarine, and a ninja under the Banner of Beatbox Giant Productions, LLC.

And the best place to see our freshest episodes is not YouTube, but AskANinja.com. :) You can find all of our vids and embed codes there.

Thanks!
