Play online chess |  Subject: Annotate during, after, or both?
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?

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

Until last month, his last visit was in 1999. In his latest trip, from Aug. 5 to Aug. 22, Anand taught chess classes for two days. He also played a simultaneous exhibition against 20 of the best chess players from those classes, winning 15 games and drawing the rest. The rules in simultaneous games, which players call “simuls,” are fairly simple. The player giving the exhibition walks from chess board to chess board. Each time he stops, his opponent makes a move so he can see it, and he responds before ...
