#6: With 1,011 visits, my Michael Jackson Interview at his memorial service proved to be quite the curiosity factor. (This was the first time the thousand barrier was broken.)

#5: 1,056 people checked in to read the seven part story of our first experience evangelizing a West Hollywood Gay Pride Parade.

#4: 1,061 read about the story behind the“Origin of Species” Giveaway at USC featuring an interview with a prideful professor of evolutionary biology.

#3: When I posted the video of the  “Origin of Species” give away, 1,199 people tuned in to see it.

#2: The Michael Jackson Memorial Service was a big draw with  1,216 reading about how we were able to preach to the cordoned off crowds at The STAPLES Center in downtown L.A.

But by far, the #1 story, and the largest crowd attracted to this site, was brought about by a video that I didn’t even approve….
