Since 1966 July 20 has been celebrated as the International Chess Day. Congratulations with the holiday!

Here are some ideas on how to celebrate it in a special way:

1. Teach someone how to play chess
2. Buy yourself a new chess book/software/set
3. Register for a real tournament
4. Play a strip-chess match with your significant other
5. Get yourself a Garry Kasparov Helloween costume
6. Blog about your love for chess
7. Watch the Morozevich-Carlsen game at Biel from beginning to end
8. Donate money to your local chess club
9. Help make #chess a trending topic on Twitter
10. Bake a chess cake

And what ideas do you have?

OK, without knowing that today was the international chess day, today I did or I'm doing: 
-1 
-2 
-6 (is it valid as 6 updating with results and standings and photos the Tatiana Kosintseva Fans Club group I created on Facebook?) 
-7 (and I've already watched Sebag-Kosintseva game from the beginning to the end and the end of Dzagnidze-Zhao Xue game)

Lo que dijo acerca de Garry Kasparov, me pareci gracioso. 8) :grin  
 
Admiro a Garry Kasparov como el gran ajedrecista que es l, pues ha dejado una huella de excelencia en el mundo del ajedrez. En las partidas de Garry Kasparov hay fantasa y sacrificios inesperados que hacen que sus partidas sean especiales. Kasparov crea o ha creado mundos fantsticos en su juego. En las partidas del gran campen de todos los tiempos, Garry Kasparov, hay vida en abundancia.  
En su juventud, l no slo calculaba, l construa mundos fantsticos con sus partidas. :)  
 
Natalia, muchas felicidades para ti y para tu familia. Natalia, que tengas muchos xitos. 
 
Y respecto a la pregunta de qu hara yo en esta fecha del da internacional de ajedrez? 
Pues, si tuviera cerca mo a una muchacha que conozco y que me gusta mucho, a ella le encanta el ajedrez, pero ella no es de mi pas, si la tuviera cerca me la declarara el da de hoy y no dejara de mimarla.  
Si es que esa muchacha estuviera cerca mo pero est tan lejos. :) :zzz

Kto go wymy[liB i wprowadziB, tego niestety nie ma, ale skoro swoje [wito maj grnicy, babcie, hodowcy kanarkw itd. itd. to czemu nie szachi[ci? PomysB bardzo sympatyczny, termin odpowiedni (wakacje), to mo|e by tak w Polsce DzieD Szachw rozpowszechni? 
Oto co Natalia proponuje swoim czytelnikom, by uczci Zwiatowy DzieD Szachw: 
- naucz kogo[ gra w szachy, 
- kup sobie ksi|k albo program szachowy, 
- zapisz si do turnieju szachowego, 
- kup sobie strj na Halloween z podobizn Kasparowa, 
- zacznij pisa bloga o twojej miBo[ci do szachw, 
- przeka| pienidze do lokalnego klubu szachowego, 
- upiecz tort szachowy.

Will add that myself is using Chess Elite and very happy with the alcoipatipn. Just waiting more people to join and have many exciting battles going on at the same time. Today they changed the price from $4 to $1! After make the registration all players is starting at a Elo of 1600 and that will change each time after winning/losing the games.
