Now that I have a chess set, where can I learn to play chess?

[CatWoman]

Have you seen the glass/crystal chess sets featured in X-Men?

I was able to scarf up one over the weekend for about 10 bucks.

Now where do I go to learn how to play?

2. On Line

You can play on line, or you can join a chess club. Some people prefer to look at a board because staring into a monitor causes eye-strain. Google "on-line chess". You get a higher rating the more times you win.

5. www.games.yahoo.com

It's nice...make sure to pick an amateur table. The game won't let you make illegal moves, so you catch on quick.
