The ability to play chess games on the Internet has been a popular feature of the new digital age among both long-time enthusiasts for one of the world’s most popular and respected games, and new converts to the love for chess games. Among games websites, websites which give to their users the opportunity of being able to conduct their chess games over the Internet have in a few cases experienced marked popularity and in the process attained the status of becoming a daily stop for Internet users.

This innovation of the digital age in regard to games was accomplished through the development and implementation of a feature of the technology available to Internet companies which are referred to commonly as Internet chess servers.
