MSN chess symbols

Everyone wants to know how to put chess symbols into their MSN names and chats. Why? Because chess is the sport of Kings! Chess has been played for hundreds of years by thousands of people around the world, and not just because it is a brilliant way to pass the time – it’s also a very good way to keep the brain fresh and alert. Why else would someone spend such a length of time on a silent day, with a maximum of one other person at the table?
