If somebody told me I could play Pictionary online I don't think I'd exactly hoot, "Finally! My prayers are answered!" and when a friend invited me to iSketch it took a bit of cajoling to get me to log on. iSketch is a free multiplayer Shockwave (beware: it can bog down your system a bit) game in which the players take turns drawing a word chosen by the server while the other players try to guess the word. Like I said, Pictionary. Unlike the old dinner party stand-by, however, iSketch is fast-paced and very addicting. To log on to iSketch you just need to pick a username (no registration, password optional) and then choose a room or create one for you and your friends to play in. If you create your own room there are lots of lots of options you can configure, including how long each round lasts, what word list to use (e.g. "U.S. Basic,"  "Nintendo," "Portuguese," "XXX," etc.), and even how many people can draw at once.
