I’m playing Scrabulous like crazy, and Scramble as well. I was playing Warbook for a while, but I realized I don’t like “do a few routine things, and level up, and that’s about it” games. Also, the legion of quiz games don’t do much for me.

So what’s your favorite? Anything truly interesting and immersive out there?

I enjoy Othello and Four-in-a-Row, but they’re not all that innovative…

If there are any very awesome games on Facebook, I haven’t seen them. There are way too many of the “get your friends to sign up if you want to win” variety. I’ve recently become addicted to [Kongregate.com](http://Kongregate.com) though.

He may be a billionaire but he’s an asshole for letting Facebook turn into such a sack-of-shit site with all the pointless apps.

Clicking on people’s profiles at random and taking a drink every time you see someone whose favorite movies do not include _The Wedding Crashers,_ _Anchorman_, _Zoolander,_ and _Scarface_.

I’m an idiot and a Facebook newbie; how do you go about clicking on people’s profiles at random? All I can do is view my friends and search for people by name or e-mail address.

If you’re a chess player, the chess app from [chess.com](http://chess.com) is pretty good. They’ve fixed some flaws with it and now you can play against friends or the computer.

Traveler IQ Challenge is fun, albeit edumacational.
