Corner

Recently, the solid connection at W6 is coming up as an alternative for the hanging connection at a. The idea is, that after White's attachment at b, Black's defense at c is impossible. Thus, White is more or less guaranteed the option of playing either at b or d.

Simple joseki

Because the corner is quite large, B7 is a common move. White concludes a simple joseki with W8, but she can also play tenuki. As of Jan 2003, up to W8 is very fashionable in pro games.

Hane

Black could also play the hane at B1. This diagram shows one possible continuation. Instead of W8, White a-B9-White tenuki is also possible.

As stated, the advantage for White over the hanging connection is that after White a, Black will have no choice but to answer at b.
