and they didn't even mention bitcointalk.org

This forum is not even on the first page of google results for "bitcoin"

Well, it's kind of a good thing, isn't it?    I mean, bitcoin is a tool.  Here we talk about it.  Elsewhere, people use it.

It is great to see, but I am surprised that pizzaforcoins.com is getting so much attention - but I'm still amazed at satoshi dice too. Got into bitcoin investment thinking it would revolutionize on-line porn with its anonymous features. Well, count me wrong. Congrats on the site, hope you make a ton.

and yet again it is the humble pizza pie that is monetizing bitcoin to a whole new audience ....

.... bitcoins owes pizza big time.

Nice remark, well told   Next time, someone will buy a pizza restaurant with BTC and make the headlines

My freshman economics professor pumped out an economics theory using pizza as example about every 10 minutes.  Sometimes longer sometimes shorter.  Same as bitcoin really.
