I’ve been playing Facebook scrabble lately. It’s a little addictive in a way …but sucks because it’s hard to get any quick games going. So then I tried my old Gamehouse program - but unfortunately they don’t support Mac anymore. Then I remembered the old ‘Wordbiz’ application from the Internet Scrabble Club …or rather eventually remembered it. I found it online, launched the java program …and nothing has changed since I first played it around 4+ years ago! The interface is the same, the commands are the same -lol, it was kinda refreshing to find something on the internet that has a ‘if it’s not broke don’t fix it’ approach to things. The problem for me was that I forgot my old login (handle) name …which means I’ve had to start fresh. But that’s all fine, cause now I can play Scrabble whenever I want - yea me!
So if you’re into that Scrabble thing and hate playing against a computer or slow Facebook friends, try Wordbiz out. There’s always someone available - and it won’t take you long to get used to the interface, or find someone your own skill level, or even find someone who wants to play 10 or 20 min. games.
The ever-so elegant Wordbiz interface
