Nice idea:

Summary: Organize a beginner's event on the same day, word-wide, to get media attention.

That's not a bad idea. Even if it doesn't get media attention, it's always nice to teach more people how to play.

I think it is a great idea. I look forward to learning more and planning an event.

Hello.

I thought I start a topic in the Life in 19x19 forums for Learn Go Week so there is a place where people can see what others are up to all around the world and get ideas, make suggestions and comment.

Hopefully we can make Learn Go Week a great international annual event!

Click here for the official Schedule and Announcement!

Let's make this week a success, and see you around! :)

It's September now and not so many events listed, although I do hear on various fora of quite a lot of people intending to set one up. I do hope more people will register their event at GGG, even if it's just a simple open house at the local club. Running an event (great!) but keeping it secret is only doing half the job as we want to be able to tell the media how much is going on as this will feed back to us all with better publicity. GGG has a fine initiative here so let's back him up with 100+ events!
