I think this must be the highest Alexa ranking site yet to cite bitcoin. BTW you have a pm.

It was published right before the forum went down for a few hours haha.

Was it ? It's certainly correlated, then. The amount of new visitors blew up the bitcoin website. Thanks for pointing it out.

This article is surprisingly balanced and accurate for a mainstream publication. PC World is a big deal. I am psycheless. Time to restore the Wikipedia article.

It would have been nice to get this attention in any other context. WikiLeaks has kicked the hornet's nest, and the swarm is headed towards us.
