World media takes notice

Chessgames.com, the home of Barangay Wesley, gave in. It now offers a live coverage of the So-Kamsky Round 3-Game 1 for FREE.

I think it's something historic at chessgames.com (I could be wrong). For the first time, it offers free live coverage of a chess match between two chess players.

As far as I know, chessgames.com offers LIVE coverage only to premium members - that is, only to subscribers who pay.

Read between the lines, fellas. GM Wesley So is now that big in international chess. Never believe a Western journalist who coined the term "unknown Wesley So from the Philippines." A chess journalist who said that line is surely sleeping in his job and deserves to be fired.

For sure, any chess server knows the large following of Wesley. Perhaps, chessgames.com was alarmed by the free offering of chessdom and chessbomb. And who wouldn't be? In the first place, chessgames.com is the original home of Barangay Wesley. It's media war, brothers.

Any online chess media knows the formula nowadays: Keep Wesley So and you get the highest hits.

Believe it or not, Barangay Wesley is unique. Nowhere else in the world can you find chess addicts like BW members. It's phenomenal indeed. Only if chessgames or chessdom would reveal statistics, Wesley So is the main source of their hits.

Why I say this? The business sector should know it well.

C'mon businesspeople, it's profitable to invest in Wesley. Grab the opportunity. Wesley endorsing your producucts? Expect a high return on investments.
