Go Blog Anyone?

Post by Spine »

I miss the days when ChiyoDad had his active Go Blog with all sorts of fun and interesting reads. Does anyone know of any active ones out there that are worth skimming? I wanna be back in the loop xD

I recently discovered Go of Ten, written by a strong European 6d ("Tien" on KGS): http://gooften.net/

I'm also hoping to jump-start All About Go in the near future...
All About Go | Go website featuring lessons, history of Go, downloads, articles by professionals and more.

What actually happened to ChiyoDad? He went inactive on GD around the same time Don's presence diminished, but I wasn't around much at the time either, so I probably missed him posting about a change of interest or lack of time. I recall his "Online Go Anxiety" entries, which I could so well relate to.

The last I remember, he took an active interest in ukeleles, and started blogging about that. He used to play on KGS, long after the last posts on the blog. That's all I know.

I enjoy following the blog of young Viktor Lin, 5d. I just added it to the Go Blog page on Sensei's.

So instead of giving the link here, I suggest you go to Sensei's, follow the link and check it out. :D

Recently ran across this blog myself and have been enjoying it quite a bit. He is passionate, humorous and covers a fairly wide range of go related topics.

Speaking of humor, I miss chiyodad's cartoons. Here is one of my favorites:

Always thought it would be cool to see a collaboration between chiyodad and chidori.

Edit: switched the photo to a link since the photo was having issues staying up.
