So in looking at these forums again, I realize I miss gaming, but unfortunately don't really have the large chunks of time to do it.  What thoughts do people have for formats to do gaming in either shorter segments or finding ways to compress it down?  I think the tough part is figuring out some way for it to be marginally efficient too, as in getting through story and stuff....

Different game methods. I know people who play D&D during their lunch breaks because they can eat when it's not their turn. Combat focused games make good short games; you can do a session in an hour or so.

Play by post is always an option. 

There are also a couple ad hoc games going on Google + / hangouts.
