Ok, I tried a version of online scrabble and I could never find anyone to play with me (not that it mattered, i don’t think the software ever loaded correctly anyway). Anyone know a good place to play scrabble online? Anyway, what’s your favorite browser-based online game? Novus Opiate PS - Any other UO players out there? ---

Yahoo games has one called Literati ([Link](http://games.yahoo.com/games/login?page=lt)), which is basically Scrabble. Looking just now, there were 2,600 players online so finding a partner shouldn’t be a problem. You’ll often find me in the Reversi area. ---
