best place to play online games?
 

like chess, chinese checkers, monopoly, etc. most of the classic board games.

Check out http://www.games.yahoo.com and http://www.mindjolt.com.

Skype should have this sort of stuff built in.

VASSAL is an awesome engine for online board games, too bad nobody eve rplays on it any more. At this point Facebook is probably the best online gaming center. Yahoo Games has a pretty good base too...
