Does Words with Friends Make You Smarter?
April 22nd, 2013
Lord, I do hope so.
The popular app and scandalously obvious Scrabble copycat gets a lot of attention from me. No Angry Birds for this word girl.
Is it worthwhile?
Obviously. WFF:
- Increases my vocabulary, especially two- and three-letter words.
- Ensures that my mind is not left idle for even one blessed minute.
- Connects me with my uncle in Knoxville, my cousin in Atlanta, my b-school classmate in LA, a childhood friend in NYC, a family friend in Chicago, etc. Love that chat functionality.
- Hones my competitive nature – critical for award wins.
OK, I don’t know that it’s more “beneficial” than any other game, but if you’d like to play, look me up.
