Message: I really like the feature that you can annotate your games DURING play..but I wanted to get an opinion if people think its better to annotate after the game instead...perhaps your head is a bit clearer and you can see more of what your opponent was up rather than what your next best move might be? (I know, I know, I should be doing BOTH those things during the game!) The possible downside is that annotating after the game, you might think "Why did I make that move?"...thoughts?

Message: You know more after the game. But might forget something important if you don't note it down at the time.

For some players, the 2011 U.S. Chess Championship concluded April 29, but unfortunately April 21 was my last game. On the bright side, I had a ringside seat for the remainder of the chess matches, including the heart-pounding women’s finals, which went into an Armageddon round (that’s triple overtime)! The chess tournament featured an interesting format – the top two players from two eight-player round-robin groups qualified for the semi-final matches. The two semi-finalists from the “A” group were no surprise. Reigning Chess Champion and Grandmaster (GM) Gata Kamsky and last year’s runner-up, GM Yury Shulman, easily ...
