2long Posted March 31, 2008 Share Posted March 31, 2008 Like most people (I think) I got Facebook because it appeared so popular. Then after getting so many emails telling me stuff I didn't want to know and inviting me to applications I didn't want, I gave up. However, Scrabulous is online Scrabble/Crossword and can be played quickly, over a week or more and against your friends, or anyone in the world! Maybe we can sort some league out here and play each other... Just a thought. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

crowbait Posted March 31, 2008 Share Posted March 31, 2008 I think that generally it's a "good thing"........it keeps me in touch with my daughter who is wending her way round the world. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BFD Posted April 3, 2008 Share Posted April 3, 2008 (edited) I must say that Facebook in general, and Scrabulous in particular, has decreased my productivity by roughly 79%. I love it. BFD! Edited April 3, 2008 by BFD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zpete Posted May 2, 2008 Share Posted May 2, 2008 too complecated for me,but my kids love it Same here. Canoot understand the attraction. Total garbage, thought my kids (37 to 45) had more intelligence. I fear for our future. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If that's the case, I'd use my "junk" email address. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
guava Posted May 14, 2008 Share Posted May 14, 2008 I did play a few games of scrabulous, but found it far from addictive. It's incredibly easy to cheat of course. Texas Holdem on the other hand.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
njpski Posted May 14, 2008 Share Posted May 14, 2008 Facebook is a US right wing information gathering tool - I signed up for a couple of weeks , then deleted my listing not just closed my account. Scrabulous is great, though, you can have a timed game. Ten minutes each and you get an additional 5 seconds when you play a word is my favoured way of playing - being such a fast game reduces the chance of cheating but basically you need to trust your opponent Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Prakanong Posted May 14, 2008 Share Posted May 14, 2008 " Facebook is a US right wing information gathering tool" Yes these rumours of CIA involvment keep cropping up on "TWIT" and "Cranky Geeks" every few weeks - hmmm I have my doubts I must say Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SeaVisionBurma Posted May 15, 2008 Share Posted May 15, 2008 " Facebook is a US right wing information gathering tool" love it. Never a dull moment with the conspiracy theorists For someone with very limited internet access (dial up, and slow at best) - the number of emails from facebook or other applications which people in your contacts trigger is a pain in the a*se. I rarely log into my account. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zpete Posted May 16, 2008 Share Posted May 16, 2008 Facebook, is garbage, but liked by so many addicts. I am there because ppl ask me to be their 'friend'......<deleted>. They are unknown to me, sheeeesh. I have 12 friends, 10 family and close friends, real friends. 2, I have no idea. My youngest daughter is a real addict, she has 325 friends. She knows 15. < < < < < < She is 37 years of age. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
