Dear friends, this is of course just the beginning. For now, you may surf through the links at www.gmchess.spb.ru. Part of them is outdated, but the commentary there is still in force: "...we tried to place here all the most important Web chess resources as well as some chess monopolists on the Web. All these links are classified by type and some of them are accompanied by some comments of our experts. These comments may seem a bit subjective sometimes but they are still grandmaster-subjective..." Step by step, we will update the links and transfer them to here. You are welcome to send us URL and a description of your site if it is chess-related.
