website for chess

Is a website just like this one expensive? How many computers to keep track of all the games? Can I do this in my basement? will I need a big bandwidth ?

No need for a basement, investigate cloud hosting. And large databases eventually become very expensive.

Please put in an order for the new Quantum computers. They're the next generation and will be faster..

@ogb

buy alot of postcards.

make friends in prison.

you will have your own chess site this way.

Actually, I've played prisoners before. By postcards.. Most aren't very good, but just like to talk about other things..
