So, online backgammon seems to be the new thing that will keep us glued to our computers into the early hours of the morning. Yeah - sure, you say now.. that is what I thought as well - until I tried it out.

This is a very simple process. Download the software, register your email address, get extra money and start playing. The really scary part is that once you start, it is really near impossible to stop. It is so much fun.

Anybody that likes playing backgammon, will be totally addicted to this new medium where you get excited playing for only a few cents. Believe me.. I also almost lost my head over 50 cents. So, I had to win it back - which I promptly did, only to lose it the next game again. Now I need to go and read up the various strategies for this game.

Honestly - give this a go. You can start by playing for fun to get the hang of it.
