This is something that I like to see, the encouragement of science amongst the general populace. The Planet Hunters (http://planethunters.org/) online search site has just submitted its first journal paper (to MNRAS) outline the detection of two planet candidates that have survived the elimination process. They now have the paper also submitted to arXiv.org (http://arxiv.org/abs/1109.4621).
Just think, most of the people cited as authors of this paper have no scientific qualifications, yet with their efforts science has moved one small step forward. It's great to see:)
