| Sep 24, 2012 at 16:00 | comment | added | Dilaton | Dear Edward, the overview is very fair and balanced indeed I think, it makes a very nice and enjoyable reading and there is partly even some good humor in it that made me chuckle :-). I'm so sorry that in the comments below Sean Carrol's article announcing the cute site many people including PW (he is horribly unfair, scornful, and destructive in my opinion) just spit and spat on it. I just hope you, Charlotte Mason, and Joseph Conlon manage to ignore them (if you have seen this :-/...) and that you generally obtain the positive response you deserve to your cool project. Cheers | |
| Sep 24, 2012 at 14:38 | comment | added | Edward Hughes | @Dilaton I did work on it myself, thanks for the compliments! I agree that Peter Woit is probably not going to be positive about the site. But our brief was to provide a balanced overview of string theory, so it's only fair to link to some more critical material. I myself don't agree with Peter either, but that's just my personal viewpoint! | |
| Sep 20, 2012 at 21:06 | comment | added | Dilaton | Wow, I have just seen that you have worked yourself on developing this cute site? It is a lot of fun browsing through it :-). There is only one link to a not particularly ST friendly blog I dont agree with; the owner of this blog will certainly not approve this nice site you (helped to ?) developped. As soon as he detects it he will most probably write a blog post ... but not with the intent to advertise it, on the contrary ... :-/ | |
| Sep 20, 2012 at 20:20 | comment | added | Dilaton | Ha ha yep, of course I like this ... ;-P...+1. Would be fun if it gets enough upvotes to get featured, LOL :-D | |
| Sep 19, 2012 at 20:31 | comment | added | Edward Hughes | @Qmechanic: that's true. Although I think Why String Theory? is a little more up to date! The superstrings one doesn't look like it's changed since the 90s. Still a useful reference though :). | |

| Sep 19, 2012 at 10:26 | comment | added | Edward Hughes | A bit of detail about the site. It's a educational site sponsored by the Royal Society and University of Oxford, providing a good amount of detail about current string theory research. Hopefully it's accessibly to the layman, but also contains sufficient information to interest students at undergraduate level. | |
