I’ve got a grant proposal to review, and a progress report to write for one of my own grants, so you’re getting short, link-y physics blogging:<\/p>\n

– The Strings 2006 conference has ended, with the participants apparently deciding to keep up with this “string theory” thing (maybe you’ve heard of it?) for a little while longer. Talk slides from many of the speakers are available here<\/a>. Of course, if you can understand them, you probably already knew that, and if you didn’t know that, you probably won’t get much from the slides, but there you go.<\/p>\n

– The Wall Street Journal<\/cite> piece talking about Peter Woit’s book and string theory in general is provided outside their annoying registration wall by the Northwest Florida Daily News<\/a>. I thought it was fairly unremarkable, but a lot of people have remarked on it, so I thought I should publicize the link to the full text, for those who aren’t interested in paying the WSJ for it.<\/p>\n

– Speaking of that article, David Appell has posted some reasonable thoughts about it<\/a> (though he kind of flubs some math in the middle). <\/p>\n

And there’s your string theory update for the week.<\/p>\n
