Over at www.physorg.com, Miranda Marquit wrote Quantum communication through synergy about my work with John Smolin.
In quantum channels, zero plus zero can equal non-zero is a story by Lisa Zyga, also at physorg.
Jonathan Oppenheim wrote a perspective on my work with Jon Yard called For Quantum Information, Two Wrongs Can Make a Right. My mother was not amused.
Quantum Weirdness: Two Times Zero Doesn't Always Equal Zero is a story by Mark Anderson over at IEEE Spectrum.
There's also been some blog action at the arXivblog, Slashdot and at the Quantum Pontiff.
