I'm afraid I fall into this category. What I like to do is to watch LIVE chess
(like some people will pay 20 UKP per week to see live soccer). Occasionally,
Club Kasparov do live chess, and it's easy to watch the games from their web
site. But they don't do it often enough.

I'll have to try Yahoo - if they do lots of live chess, and it's easy to watch,
I'd be happy!
