You can also just go to Google news and type 'planet', and you'll see a bunch of articles.

He's a great guy, very smart, and very funny - not to mention talented. Check out the articles. I wrote him a note to tell him that at work yesterday morning in the elevator, I saw a reference to his discovery (though unfortunately his name wasn't mentioned there). It was really exciting for me to see something relating to someone I know who's a shooting star in astronomy. (How corny was that?)
