Just checked: Flickr has 11882 lomo-related *groups*, and over a million
and a half photos tagged "lomo". So yes, they're fairly popular in
certain circles.

I think that some of them (photos) look pretty nice, and some of my
friends have taken great photos with them. I suspect that the sense of
achievement that must come with getting any correctly exposed frames at
all must account for some of the appeal.
Cheers,
I recognize that some people like lomography and buy cameras for this
purpose. To me, they look my mistakes in regular photography.
Some of them look better than many people do with DSLR's. But then
photography is not about the camera.
