Beating out Ashton Kutcher's surprising hit performance with Cameron Diaz, Mariah Carey's wedding, the green puppy and the Texas Giant Sink Hole.
W00.
It is also a not bad, by journalism standards, article on how the LHC may test speculation of Large Extra Dimensions.
Bit breathless, and I think a bit optimistic on just whether LHC can do more than cut some corners out of parameter space.
But it is a start.
of course the LED paper is very good, and 3000+ cites ain't bad.
The phenomenological followup paper was also very nice.
Although one should always remember to mention the Randall and Sundrum variation on the theme.

Heh, cutting corners out of parameter space is not exactly an exciting news leader, unless maybe they pitched the headline like this:

I would like so totally go see that.
