Subject: new Google Group for chess
|
I have created a Google Group called "chesstalk" http://groups.google.com/group/chesstalk as an alternative to the rec.games.chess.* Usenet newsgroups, because so much nonsense is posted to those groups. Anyone interested in chess in invited to join. The list owner (me) will have the power to remove off-topic messages and expel troublemakers, but in general, I want to stay out of the way. My email address is beliavsky at aol dot com because I am a fan of GM Alexander Beliavsky.

I know I could search for them, but which would you recommend? I am accustomed to the Google Groups interface and would prefer a group that uses it.

This is one of the few that isn't. That is why this exists, and yes there is crap. But there is also some interesting stuff, just because it isn't. Why don't you join any of the moderated groups.
