Subject: Shogi.Net named #1 Key Resource

Links2Go regularly carries out an unbiased statistical analysis of
millions of web pages. This revealed that of all Shogi-related sites
Shogi.Net <http://www.shogi.net/shogi.html> is the one that most
other pages link to.

<http://www.links2go.com/topic/Shogi>
<http://www.shogi.net/shogi-links2go-award.html>

More surprisingly, in the realm of all board games, Shogi.Net secured
second place, outperforming e.g. Internetchess.

The rest of the Shogi Top 5 is:

2) <http://www.ed.ac.uk/~rjhare/shogi/> Roger Hare's page
3) <http://www.shogi.or.jp/english/english.htm> NSR English home page
4) <http://wwworg.uio.no/studenter/spill/shogi/> Norwegian Shogi
5) <http://www.multimania.com/echeymol/> Eric Cheymol's page

I think Eric's page could have scored better, but many pages still
link to his old site at imaginet.fr. Other pages in the Top 32 are:
Javashogi, Matt Casters's Shogi Database, Reijer Grimbergen's page,
Swedish Federation, Steve Evans variants page, MSO World, Computer
Shogi Association. Surprisingly absent is
<http://www.vega.or.jp/~patrick/shogi/>, Patrick Davin's Shogi Nexus,
which I personally find one of the most relevant Shogi pages with
content that is being refreshed on an ongoing basis. I would
encourage every Shogi aficionado to check out the Shogi Nexus, and
link to it.

Ciao,

Pieter
