2008 Chess Olympiad

The 2008 Chess Olympiad, in Dresden, Germany, is underway. There is excellent coverage, including easy links to live games, at the official website. In addition, ChessBase, as usual, is full of great photos and information. Susan Polgar also has extensive coverage at her blog. For an always-unique perspective, see Mig Greengard's Daily Dirt blog.

I enjoyed watching the game today between Peter Svidler and Viktor Kortchnoi as it occurred. The transmission was smooth both from a broadband and a dialup connection. Here is the live games page.
