Essentially all current activity in Quake is taking place outside of America
(and on non-U.S. websites), particularly Scandinavia (though there seem to
be a lot of players also in central Europe -- Russia and Poland -- and
Brazil). PlanetQuake is a great resource, but there's been nothing new there
in years.

Here is one of the most active sites for online gameplay:

This is the most-used Quake/QuakeWorld client: http://www.fuhquake.net/
This is an easy installation package that includes FuhQuake and a number of
useful utilities and add-ons: http://equake.quakeworld.nu/
Here is a site with a huge collection of demos (movies) of net games:
