Please Note: All currently produced reviews are monitored on the Only Solitaire Blog, which gives the opportunity to access them as soon as they are written and also - yes! - to freely leave comments if you really feel like it. (That way I do not have to add the comments manually, although I reserve the right to purge the blog at will).

As for the site, all the new reviews are stored in one file, available for downloading as a Microsoft Word version or in an HTML version. New reviews are being added to the file once per week; a detailed schedule of past updates (at the moment, normally one review per day) is available here in Word format. All reviews are new and, for the most part, independent of past writings even when dealing with records already reviewed formerly. The new format leaves no space for reader comments, but I will be glad to see critique, opinions, and corrections on the message board.

Thus, in a nutshell:

Only Solitaire Blog | Only Solitaire reviews: DOC version | Only Solitaire reviews: HTML version | Only Solitaire review timeline

What you see below is the original version of Only Solitaire, mostly untouched since early 2007. This version will no longer be updated, but may serve as an interesting reminder of past times. If the new reviews are occassionally found to be in disagreement with the old ones, please disregard the old version and concentrate on the new one.
