Books and play, play and books; that's the way to progress. Books are superior to what you can find on the Internet. Only books can provide the depth, the scope, the sheer length and wealth of detail for developing real chess understanding. Others may disagree and may provide you with training links online; I may be prejudiced because when I learned to play, the Internet had not been invented yet, nor even the home desktop computer. But I swear by the book.
Ricardo - can you specify a book or two that you found particularly helpful, please?
the book that really gave my chess skills a kick was a simple book called chess players bible or something like that lots of diagrams and theories with out to many lines and annotation.its definatley worth a look
