Life In 19x19

Hi all,

I've made a Chrome/Firefox extension which adds a row of buttons to the chat box for one-click sending of common messages (user definable). It's already available in the Chrome webstore , and it's been submitted to Mozilla Add-ons for review, so should be available for Firefox soon.

Hi folks,

I'll be taking up residence in Zhengzhou city pretty soon, and was wondering where I might find a go salon, or any public areas where it's played.

Any other tips or advice about Zhengzhou are welcomed. Cheers.

Thanks, trout! No, I can't read Korean but I can read a map

Hi folks,

I'm thinking of moving to Incheon in September to teach English and I'm wondering how easy it is to find baduk parlours/salons there (or Seoul). Has anyone got any experience of this or something similar?

Thanks in advance
