Pretty intersting stuff, just a theory though. Attempts to appeal to people with no or little knowledge of physics.

An interesting read, having already read "A Brief History of Time" by Hawking.

Hawking goes a little into string theory, but does not present it nearly as clearly as this website does.

I like the step by step way they build upon the "dimensions" showing how it could all possibly work.

It's fun to think of the universe this way, but sometimes it seems all to weird.

I don't think our little brains are even close to being capable of understanding the way the universe REALLY works.

I'm not sure that I agree with that description. It's plausible, but it does not seem to agree with what I've read...

Don't mean to burst your bubble, but that doesn't even go int string theory... well, at all, really. Just the part about the 11 dimensions.

I'm sure it's dumbed down a bit, but I thought it was very interesting. That's the first I've heard about 10 dimensions, so I'd consider it a good intro.

Absoulutely awesome! I really like that. Took me forever to understand the 4th when I was 13 reading Einstien's essays (yes I was/am a nerd) but this really got my head around the ones beyond that. I'm sure I'm missing alot of the 'real' science behind it but to even have some idea where I previously had none is no small achievement!
