The top Instant Messaging clients (AOL, MSN, Yahoo) all offer games you can play with your friends, but TrayGames boasts that its IM software is designed with gaming in mind. Currently in beta with only a handful of titles, the TrayGames client enables play: 1) with a friend or small group of friends, 2) with thousands of simultaneous players, and 3) turn-based where you login, make your move and then come back later after your opponent has responded. Right now, you can enjoy Backgammon, BigTwo (cards), Checkers, Outbreak, Spell Combat (a massively single-player game) and TriviaBurst for free. Eventually, TrayGames expects to offer a mix of free and for-pay games. Give it a spin at traygames.com...
