Where to play chess online?

4/27/2016

I still remember the days we played on Yahoo!Chess, which is no longer available. Because we all have one problem, there is not many opportunities to play at home against different opponents, we have to play online. There are a lot of websites on which you can play live chess. I will list a few popular ones.

chesskid.com: free or membership, for young kids under 10 and under USCF 1000. It's safe because of the limited friend function. Videos are funny for kids.

chess.com: free or membership, parent of chesskid.com. Videos are of good quality, and a lot of discussion. More social. Tactics Trainer is good.

chessclub.com (ICC): membership. Because of no free account, players tend to be more serious. 
Videos are of good quality. The interface is more flexible and powerful. Most teachers use ICC.

playchess.com: membership. Use chessbase interface. Has tactics training based on chessbase database. 

freechess.org (FICS): free. Similar to ICC. No video.

lichess.org: free. Getting popular now.

I think you can play at playchess for free.
You get a username and rating.
You can even have access to your games played on the cloud.
https://cloud.chessbase.com/js/apps/MyGames/
https://play.chessbase.com/
But that's it. You only get limited functionality.
