SunXi Go screensaver review

SunXi Go screensaver is a wonderful screensaver for your Windows computer. It offers really good 3D graphics as well as the possibility to add your own games to be replayed, you can set the wood style, the visual effects...

There are a couple of things I forgot to mention on the review:
-This program is only available for Windows.
-Take a look at the "screenshots" from the program to get an idea of program graphics. The video has very low quality, so you won't appreciate 3d graphics much in there.

I had planned to do this review on forecoming weeks, but as it was asked by an individual user, I decided to change my plans and review my favourite screensaver today.

So, here it is: SunXi Go screensaver



There seems to be a maintenance problem on the file hosting service, so the file will be temporary available on Filefactory (look for Download with Filefactory Basic). Whenever the traditional service recovers, the file will be available here: Alejo's Reviews. It occupies 41MB.

Enjoy it and let me know your opinion

Go aggregator

Go aggregator is a site which offers 5 different feed sources, each of them shows a different part of the news in the Go world. This is a list of them:

1. GA Professional Go News: Keep up with professional go news from around the web. With this you can keep track of the major Go events from your preferred feeds reader.

2. GA Go Games and Problems: Follow recent professional game records and reviewed amateur games.

3. GA's Best Go Blogs: Follow the best English language Go blogs on the Internet. Though it doesn't include my blog, it is a list of the topics covered on other Go blogs of a high-level quality.

4. GA Go Chatter: Follow the informal and often lively discussions in go related news groups, wikis, and the like. Keeps track of the modifications on the Sensei's Library as well as the Rec.games.go group (which latelly receives lot of spam). It doesn't include the Godiscussions forum.

5. The Works: Here are the 20 most recent items from all sources tracked by GA.

If you are interested on Go blogs, there is another option available with a bigger amount of blogs feeding, it is PlanetGo.
As you can see, the feeds are extracted from 10 different English Go Blogs, 
so I guess this is what you need to stay uptodate with GoBlogs

By the way, I just modified the way that ZGo is called, in such a way that it loads automatically once you enter this site. I hope you enjoy it and let me know your opinion!!

Panda-glGo review

I just finished uploading the panda glGo review. As most of you know, it is an interface for playing on IGS, studying your games or playing against GnuGo.

The version you see here is capped, so it doesn't content the last part (player manager section). So you have to go to the download link to get the high quality and full review.




There are some controls I forgot to explain on the review:
Crtl + mouse movement: rotates board
Alt + "+" : zoom in
Alt + "-": zoom out
Shift + mouse movement: move board


So here is the high quality video: Download (61MB)

I hope you enjoy it, and let me know your comments on this!!!

Tsumego 4

In this tsumego, a 3d player punished me for making a mistake, so I had to admit I was guilty of playing without reading at all. Now that you are placed into situation, I'll explain it: on this board you see, he played a16 and I played a17 and, after his next move (you have to guess it), I killed that a16 stone. Your mission is to find the way to punishment assuming black will play correctly on the next moves...

I guess that my next games will be quite long...

White player must punish black: I hope you enjoy this tsumego, which can be easily adopted into real games, and, please, let me know your opinion about the java applet...
