2010 Yearbook “Year in Headlines” Released

The “Year in Headlines” section of the 2010 American Go Yearbook has just been released (click here or on graphic at right). The 4-page PDF includes selected headlines and color photos from reports appearing in the American Go E-Journal in 2010; click here for our online archive, where you can search by category, month or keyword. As previously reported, the Yearbook will be issued in an online PDF version only this year, and we’ll be releasing sections as they become available, as well as the entire Yearbook PDF when it’s completed. 
There’s also the previously-released wealth of member's-only material published online in 2010.  From the complete collection of 2009 game commentaries to the 2010 WAGC, US Go Congress and Cotsen Open commentaries as well as all the 2010 game commentaries published in the E-Journal (recently completely updated), a treasure trove of great go material is just a click away!
