Worried that the LHC experiment will destroy the world? Fikar not… this is the era of citizen journalism, user-generated content and continuous updates… here are a couple of links to keep the paranoid you reassured ;-)

http://HasTheLargeHadronColliderDestroyedTheWorldYet.com/ (Atom feed)

http://HasTheLHCDestroyedTheEarth.com/ (RSS feed)

And for the geeks out there go check the source markup for those 2 pages :-)

Here is a snippet from the first link:

<body> 
	<div id="main"> 
		<script type="text/javascript"> 
			if (!(typeof worldHasEnded == "undefined")) {
				document.write("YUP.");
			} else {
				document.write("NOPE.");
			}
		</script> 
		<noscript>NOPE.</noscript> 
	</div> 
	<script type="text/javascript"> 
		var gaJsHost = (("https:" == document.location.protocol) ? "https://ssl." :
		"http://www.");
		document.write(unescape("%3Cscript src='" + gaJsHost +
		"google-analytics.com/ga.js' type='text/javascript'%3E%3C/script%3E"));
	</script> 
	<script type="text/javascript"> 
		var pageTracker = _gat._getTracker("UA-275043-3");
		pageTracker._trackPageview();
	</script> 
	<!-- if the lhc actually destroys the earth & this page isn't yet updated
	please email mike@frantic.org to receive a full refund -->
