The Hawaii Chess Federation, which hosted the 1998 U.S. Open, has probably the most technically impressive of all the State Web pages. It looks like it was put together by a professional eb page designer, something that few of the other states can claim. However, for all its bells and whistles, there is not that much information there. Furthermore, some of the bells and whistles make my Web browser go bonkers. There are no games to download, boo hoo.
Issues are available online, which is always nice.
They sent me a free magazine, and I was so impressed that I subscribed. The Indiana State Web Site is a bare-bones entry level page, but at least they have some sort of Web presence. However, there's plenty of information on Iowa chess at Iowa master Mark Willey's page. The site of the Maine Chess Association is pretty simple, but they have some interesting ideas for promoting chess in that state. The Maryland Chess Web site seems nice, but it does not appear to have been updated recently.
