''The Week in Chess'' (TWIC) is one of the first, if not the first, Internet-based chess news services. TWIC has been edited by Mark Crowther since its inception in 1994. It began as a weekly Usenet posting, with "TWIC 1" being posted to Usenet group rec.games.chess on 17 September 1994.〔(The Week in Chess 1 ), Usenet newsgroup rec.games.chess, 19 September 1994〕 Later it moved to Crowther's personal web site, then to chesscenter.com in 1997,〔(TWIC 500! ) - a history of TWIC, formerly at about.com (June 2004), now at Internet Archive〕 and in 2012 it moved to theweekinchess.com.〔(1000 issues and a 20th year for TWIC ), Mark Crowther, TWIC 1000, 6 Jan 2014〕 It contains both chess news, and all the game scores from major events. TWIC quickly became popular with professional chess players, because it allowed them to quickly get results and game scores, where previously they had relied on print publications.〔(The Week In Chess 200. Mark Crowther's child grows up. ), guest article by Mig Greengard in TWIC 200, 7 September 1998〕 TWIC still exists as a weekly newsletter, although for important events the TWIC website is updated daily. It remains a popular site for up-to-date chess news.〔For instance, it is referenced in the (The New York Times Chess Blog ), 31 August 2008〕 ==References== 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「The Week in Chess」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
