Scrabulous lets you play scrabble with friends but without having to be in the same place or play at the same time. Here at the office, it's increasingly become the fodder for trash talking, the subject of many conversations about two-letter words, and the browser window we all scramble to close as soon as a coworker nears our desks.
Let the games begin...We didn't fully realize our dependence until Thursday, when Scrabulous informed us it was taking a short coffee break. As we talked about its impact on our lives at the office, we also commented on how it's a great example of an application that gets better with more interactions between users, is fun and useful, and has built a loyal following that engages with it every day. So we decided to give them a shout out on the blog, and let them know that like other users, we couldn't wait until our games were able to resume.
