SmartGo's Kierulf on the US Go Congress and his new app

SmartGo's Anders Kierulf recently published a nice post-Go Congress blog post. In it you'll find out why Kierulf will be bringing a a 9.7" iPad to the next Congress instead of his 12.9" iPad Pro, gives shout-outs to Brady Daniels for making a good case about why you should come to the next Go Congress and Kevin Hwang's Go Talk about “What did you like most about the Go Congress?” both of which he says "clearly show that people are a main feature of the annual Go Congress." Kierulf also reports that he just launched a new app for Othello, "a game that go is often confused with." SmartOthello is written in Swift, Apple’s new programming language, "and is the first step in a redesign of my go apps," Kierulf tells the E-Journal. "Most of the E-Journal readers are probably not interested in Othello/Reversi, but many might be interested to see the direction of the SmartGo apps." photo: Kierulf at the 2016 US Go Congress with Yasuko Imamura, a go instructor and SmartGo user from Kyoto
