Hi all I am at the very beginning of my go career. Are there any books or resources (websites) that people can recommend? I have Iwamoto's Go for Beginner's and am looking at studying this fascinating game in the new year. I would also appreciate any suggestions on study for beginners. Have a good week and catch up soon. markeemark |

Probably the best resource for starting out is The Interactive Way To Go. It assumes no previous knowledge and teaches both the rules and the most fundamental tactical concepts ![]() |

Sensei's library is sure to become one of your most-visited sites as you start to play go. It contains thousands of articles on just about every aspect of the game - including plenty for beginners (which is easy to find from the homepage). |

gochild2009.appspot.com is a wonderful resource. It has fun packs of problems - I would suggest starting with one of the "entrance level" packs. If you like watching games in real time you should check out http://www.gokgs.com, where there are normally dozens of games going on. |

I mentioned in a previous post that I watch some kids that are interested in learning. I am also interested in learning and this site that you recommended should be really great for me. Thanks for sharing and I will keep everyone updated on my progress. |
