Finally a place to Start learning all thanks to GOBASE.ORG, they are embarking in a big project called 321go.org, Check it out.. Am going to try this, it looks pretty good.
Lessons, Reviews, Tips, Reading Material... I think this summer I shall improve with this...
The downside is a whole lot of material is in Dutch, but in theory they'r working to produce the English version.
Will keep you guys posted.
I was thinking the other day, maybe there are people out here in Houston that want to play go but time is the issue. Well If you want to meet up during the week or some other day than sunday. Please Reply to this post, leave your email or something I can use to contact you and let's meet for a Game...
Waiting for replies...
My First Game in Second. The guy with the jeans is me, and the Kimono guy is a Friend from 2nd. The experience is quite out of this world, you sit down turn on the Goban like it was a videogame, select the conditions of the game and there you go, you Start playing GO in a virtual world, Your character moves his hand to place the stone, you can say comments, say "OHH NO" and the character will speak, is quite fun. I all of the sudden thought I was playing back at Ziggy's.
Here are some more pictures of my game, I lost but then again I was playing a 6 Kyu. I invite you guys to try this out, at least once..
I wasn't the type to try this type of thing. But I said well why not... 
My first encounter was really ackward, I found my place in a totally strange new world, with a new persona, walking around and talking to people (via 3d Chat), I asked around until I found a Go center, teleported myself there and magically appeared in a Dojo type place were there were Go Boards. To my surprise there was someone there and they invited me to a Game, We sat down like on real life, and started touching the board to set up the game and we did actually play...
This is exactly what I saw I found that as well as these pictures am still new to this 2nd life thing so I don't really know how everything works, so I had a hard time trying to talk walk and play....
I may try again 2nite and give it a GO!.
The Go Center can be Located here and the 2nd life address
I have added my 2 cents to the Go world.
Here is my little addition to Google
HOUSTON's 1st GO MAP
Look for it on Google as "Go places in Houston, Texas"
Enjoy.
ENJOY!... The Go Master Trailer (thanks for correction)
A bit of plot...
The film chronicles Qingyuan's (Go Seigen's) discovery as a child prodigy in China, his move to Japan and rise as a champion. Later, he marrys the leader of a cult and finds himself being exploited by the group. When relations between Japan and China deteriorate into open war, Qingyuan stays in his adopted nation. Now in his 90's, he lives there to this day, teaching and writing about Go.
on a side note, this film looks very similiar to GO MASTERS (1982) A super to hard to find movie, but some of you are good a treasure hunting... Is a intense film, with kind of the similiar note plus was the first film China and Japan collaborated after the war... Am going to try to find this movie over netflix or some other rental place... Stay tuned...
