I like the internet chess idea better.
I mean, beaming Newton chess sounds kinda cool, but to be honest I'd
rather just use the board on my coffee table.
Online chess, on the other hand, is a pretty cool idea. Very cool. So
cool, in fact, that there is a Chess section in Yahoo games. Bunch of
other games as well. Unfortunately, the applet doesn't appear to work
on Safari. Bastards.... Netscape seems good with it, though.
Are there any other online board game sites?
