Is anyone aware of any good blogs from people on the ground at the World Mind Sports Games in Beijing?

No idea if it'll be good, but there is:

Linda Lee's blog: http://linda.bridgeb...ing.com/?cat=18

Phillip Alder's bridge columns (not a blog, but usually good coverage of interesting hands): http://topics.nytimes.com/top/reference/ti...game/index.html - nice defense by Patrick Huang on this one.

I will try and keep a blog going (and get some pictures up) so that you can get a bit of a “behind the scenes” flavour of the event.
