Some unforeseen Christmas-vigil blog activity bringing here a few visitors more than average was traced today back to BBC News, who discussed the 2010 science highlights here.
The incoming link is in this paragraph:
The evolving role of the blogosphere in science came to the fore as
particle physicists were preparing to gather in Paris for their annual
conference. Internet rumours suggested that the US Tevatron particle
smasher had seen hints of the elusive Higgs boson.The rumours were quickly scotched, but scientists later announced they had narrowed the range of masses where the Higgs could hide by about one quarter.
This is a rather fair summary of the event, quite unlike the hysterical reactions of some of the involved parties. Thanks, BBC.
