Maybe I'm a nerd but I can't find the way to do it.

http://www.chess.com/echess/create_game  ... which is reached via the Start New Game link on the Online Chess page.

Change the first drop-down from Standard Chess to Chess960.

It's pretty well hidden.  Click Online Chess.  Do NOT click on the big orange "Play Now" button.  Click "Begin New Game" instead.  Brings you to a page with options.

Select Game Options

Ok, thanks a lot. I wanted to play by the android app, but I see now I can't do it.
