Chessboard is a standalone UCI-compatible chess board. It provides a chess board interface to Internet Chess Servers like FICS and it is compatible to UCI chess engines. You can play against an engine or with other people over the Internet. It is also possible to save your games in a MySQL-Database. You can always ask an engine to tell you what the best moves in your position are. It is also possible to watch chess tournaments over the FICS-relay service.
