I Was Wrong about Facebook

Scrabulous has stolen my life. I still stand by the rest of my comments that I don’t totally get Facebook, but it’s pretty good for Scrabble playing.

    Glynn:

    It’s still not as good as eScrabble was (I gripe to everyone), but it does seem to work.

    eScrabble was nicer looking and had a better message system — and didn’t require one to be part of the (to my mind, largely annoying) Facebook world. Which I joined, because I’m in law school, and quite a few people who I otherwise like and therefore would like to be in communication with seem to use it as their primary channel for … everything.

    I wonder how long Scrabulous will last — unless they have a special dispensation from Hasbro. (See http://yro.slashdot.org/article.pl?sid=05/03/22/0149222&from=rss)

    Cheers,

    My personal favourite is the Traveler IQ Challenge – all of the planting of flags on random locations on the globe seem worthwhile everytime one’s IQ score goes up a notch :).
