Hello, chess players, fans and chess enthusiasts! 

New version of TheChessWorld is now available and is fully functional. This is actually the third version (3.0) of the site which was established in 2008. The number of visitors is rapidly increasing, and about 50,000 chess pages open up each month.  If you find any bugs while browsing the site please let me know or use the Guestbook.

If you are new to TheChessWorld I recommend checking out the following chess resources:

• Chess articles
  
• Play chess against the engine
  
• Blog
  
• Nalimov endgame tables
  
• Tactics trainer
  
• Video  lessons
  
• Wallpaper collection
  
• Download
  

In order to fully enjoy TheChessWorld I strongly recommend using Firefox, Chrome or Opera as your web browser.

Get Firefox for free

In order to be able to enjoy virtual chess board Flash is required.

If you are experiencing technical difficulties with Tactics Trainers make sure you have new version of Flash installed and try using web browsers mentioned above.

Thank you for your attention and support,

Hope to see you often,

Yury Markushin.
