Wei Chao

Wei is the creator of an online billiard diagramming software called CueTable  (AKA WeiTable). This fascinating software was developed to provide an easy way for people to diagram billiard shots. Any shot configurations can be set visually by a few simple mouse clicks. Once created, the layout can then be forwarded to others quickly via an encrypted URL links.

A detailed tutorial can be found at http://cuetable.com/howto.html.
Invest a few minutes and you will be able to demonstrate your past skills and stories among online billiard communities around the world.

Wei has also started  a sophisticated database project called CueTable Public Library. Every player can participate in archiving, sharing, and discussing a wide ranging variety of shot layouts from different games. The web address is: http://PublicLibrary.CueTable.com

CueTable has the potential to activate, extend and enhance new life into our sport.
