Hasbro Finally Drops Scrabulous Lawsuit
The Associated Press reports that Hasbro Inc. has now dropped the lawsuit it launched earlier this year against Rajat and Jayant Agarwalla, the creators of Scrabulous, a Scrabble clone that found a sizable following on Facebook. We previously discussed Scrabulous' return to Facebook under a different name, as well as the "official" Scrabble client, which was not exactly well received. Hasbro's IP rights to the game are limited to North America, and the AP story adds: "Mattel, which owns the rights to Scrabble outside of North America, filed a lawsuit against the brothers in India claiming violations of intellectual property. It was not immediately clear what the status of that lawsuit is."
the reason you've never been to facebook is a lack of friends.
i love how the geeks here try to make social networking sites look uncool because they're popular but we all know the truth is that it's just another place for them to be rejected and mocked.
fear social networking nerd.
Did they really think that a company founded by two Jews wouldn't sue over money? Really?
