Correspondence Chess is LIVE!
Chess.com has finally launched correspondence/turn-based chess! We are calling it "email chess" so that everyone understands that it is turn-based and you can choose to get an email when it is your turn. Or, just stay online and get an alert when it is your turn to move. Play a whole game in 5 minutes, or take 2 months. It's up to you and your opponent!
What are you waiting for!?

Yes, I am the guy who started Chess.com (along with Jay, Igor, Piotr, and many others). I have 3 amazing daughters, one wild son, and a wonderful, patient wife! I learned chess when I was 8 years old. Since then I have been playing, studying, and enjoying it regularly. I prefer semi-open and closed positions that blow up tactically (like the Closed Sicilian, King's Indian, Glek etc).
