An Apology

We recently added a little popup window to Scrabble Words Finder which invited people to subscribe to our mailing list of Scrabble tips and tricks. It's set up so that it pops up once, and if you decide you're not interested it goes away, never to return.

Unfortunately, for anyone using Chrome, it kept coming back again and again and again... urk. Sorry, we messed up. It's been removed until we solve the problem. Also, our facebook word finder app had some teething problems and hopefully by the time you read this it'll all be back to normal. It never rains, but it pours.

Fighting dirty at scrabble

Some people take winning to a whole other level, Check out Mehal Shah's hillarious tips on how to frustrate your opponent:






I've got a better suggestion though - Just use our handy scrabble finder to win every game!

Scrabble Finder on Facebook!

I've just put the finishing touches on the Word Helper facebook app, which uses the official SOWPODS dictionary in the same way that Scrabble Word Finder does. It's just a more convenient location for the same type of service. I play a lot of Wordscraper, and flicking to another site is sort of annoying.


I created a firefox bookmarklet for scrabble word finder which was my first attempt to fix the problem, but it doesn't seem to have too much adoption - I think even the concept of a bookmarklet is too techie for most. Having an app on facebook seems to fit in with how people use the site better.
