Active Again

After a long layoff, the Chess Country blog is active again. We will be overhauling the site over the next few months and getting back to basics. Our first step has been to close the store. We are going to concentrate instead on more articles, book reviews, and news as we gather it. Our first order of business will be more timely posts. Lots of interesting things going on in the chess world these days. Magnus Carlson has won the Nanking Pearl Spring Tournament in China. With a round to go has a full two point lead over V. Topalov. His performance in this tournament is one of the strongest of all time. We will contine to gather and post news here as we find it. If you have any ideas as to what you would like to see with regard to chess and our website, please us know.
