Google released a realtime gadgets API for Google Talk that's especially useful if you want to play games with your friends.
For now, the APIs are only available in a developer sandbox, which includes a special interface of Gmail Chat. Here's how you can play chess with one of your friends:
* Go to the sandbox and send this link to your friend: http://talkgadget.google.com/talkgadget/sandbox.
* When your friend started to use Gmail Chat's sandbox, click on "Options", select "Start application", paste the following address:
http://code.google.com/apis/talk/examples/chess.xml
and press Enter.
Two more application that you can try:
* a very simple rock-paper-scissors game:

* an automatic translation application:
