Scrabulous Founders Post an Update
The big news at Scrabulous for me is that I am finally beating Arik Hesseldahl from BusinessWeek for a change. Score one for the Social Media guys. But when I logged in to enjoy the 56 point margin I'm enjoying,
I noticed this note from the founders, who have received a Cease & Desist Letter from Scrabble owners Hasbro & Mattel:
We are really grateful to the entire Scrabulous community for the exceptional support that has been provided. It is amazing to see that a small application has touched so many people across the world! There has been a lot of speculation about the future of Scrabulous and it is currently impossible for us to comment on this matter. However, like always, we shall update you as soon as we can.
In the meantime, please click here to enjoy a song created by an anonymous Scrabulous fan. :)
Best Regards,
Rajat & Jayant
It really doesn't say much, but it's nice to see the founders trying to have a conversation with their customers., don't you think?

I just started a new game of Scrabulous with my wife, no problem. I didn't get the warning above, I guess it's resolved (for now). Let's hope they keep it up!
