Guests can now post their comments to my blog entries. I don't think there's going to be many, but I'm letting you know just in case. If you do post a comment and you're not a registered user on these forums, the comment will have to be approved first. (you know what spam is like, don't you? ) Anyway, instructions are pretty basic: just click on the "reply button" and then enter your comments. Can't get easier than that!

I'm currently adding new links to the links section of this site. I've created a new section called "Country specific", for I didn't know where else to put all the Australian Links that I know about. My intention is to create links for other english speaking countries: US, UK, etc. but first things first. Anyway, one of the Australian Links that I've come across is the one from the Hakoah Chess Club in Sydney, where I played for many years. I even defended their first team on board 1 for several years in the Sydney Grade Matches. I was going to add a link to their site on my lists, but then I read this in their page: "...Australia's only professional and qualified Chess Coaching Business" I decided that NEVER will I add a link to my site that lies to people in such a way and tries to misslead them for their own benefit. I had never even heard of their business (modesty aside, I work in the field and sydney is my second home) and there are several professional and very well qualified chess coaching businesses in Australia. I understand that we live in a competitive world, but LIES will lead you nowhere. Not on this site, anyway.
