Web Watch

12 August 2002

Today I would like to continue with this column. By the way, I hope that our other journalists will also share their Web findings with CT readers.

It makes sense to start with the GM Square, which recently undergo a major re-design. It was a lot of work and I am grateful to our Web master Arlen Walker for conducting it. We are working on adding new content to the site, so have a look there. The site has a discussion forum and a pretty decent online shop.

If you have interest in chess composition, have a look at Bruno Berenguer’s site
Chess Problem of the Day.

I have recently seen another site with daily chess problems - it is called Scahhi: il Matto del Postino and is in Italian. However, when it comes to tactics, language is not so important - you either see the checkmate or you don’t! :-)

If you ever wondered what it takes to run a scholastic chess tournament, then have at look at Arlen Walker’s account of the recent junior team tournament at his The ChessMill site - pretty interesting reading.

If you are interested in correspondence chess, there is a new site called LetPlayChess - check it out.
