Bloggers (particularly chess bloggers, who are not organized by media companies) are independent voices. The risk that USCF links to a blogger who is highly critical of the organization is very real (i.e. hateful, not helpful, no plausible solutions offered, etc).<br><br>To that end I think the chess blogs webrings and carnivals should be driven by the blogs, for the blogs. The USCF forums can be used to promote these webrings, but we can be assured that the organization itself is not at risk for what might be typed into the blogs.<br><br>Best wishes on promoting chess in GA.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
