Word Scramble Game 17

Filed under: Dogs and Puppies Info and Resources — Beth @ 6:23 am

I don’t really choose to work the word scramble game when I can play so many other puzzle games online and off, but on occasion, I do find a few games that include a part of the challenge is to figure out a word scramble game. For example, there is a fun, easy to hard game on Pogo that is called Word Whomp Whackdown. You are given six letters (held up by gophers, or some ground-burrowing animals), and you make as many three-, four-, five-, and sometimes six-letter words as you can…provided that each letter you use in the word-sequence is directly next to the next letter. Once you successfully fill the blanks—that fill up as you make words—you are taken to the final round. There, you play a quick word scramble game whereby you have like forty seconds and five scrambled words. The first two are three-letter words, the second two are four-letter words, and the last is a five-letter word. Each of the scrambled words’ letters are on stones, which crumble altogether once you successfully unscramble the particular word. You are a little gopher here, and as you think, a hound dog is tracking your scent…so you have to move fast enough that he (or she) doesn’t bite your butt and prevent you from winning that particular word scramble game, or set, and doesn’t blow your chance at a jackpot spin (well known to the gaming site, Pogo).

There are theme word scramble games at eastoftheweb.com which are more interesting than just a conglomerate of unrelated words; and there are educational word scramble games or those “for writers” (who need to slack off occasionally, or get the intellectually circuits re-charged) at places like writingfix.com and WordCentral.com; and there are numerous other sites that offer the occasional word scramble game free of charge. Check out, for example, places such as Word Gamer’s Paradise, at fun2play.com; HoadWorks Puzzles—a. k. a. Wordly Websites (links to many word scramble game and other word game sites) at hoadworks.com; and…be sure to look into Pogo.com, where you might just run into someone you know or someone else who likes the word scramble game as much as you and will therefore be worth getting to know!

Web Addresses 24

Web Addresses

If you want to have websites, you need to have web addresses. You can’t have a site without one, and it may seem simple, but you really need to think hard before you decide which address you want for your website. You want something that reflects what your site is about, and one that won’t turn people off. It may seem like there are so many websites out there that all the good web addresses are taken, but this simply isn’t true. Your address will and should be as unique as you.

If you have a business, you want a professional and short address. If your web addresses are too hard to remember, no one will get to your site by memory alone. There are many times I hear web addresses on television or from a friend, but I can only remember the simple ones when it comes time to go to them. Most businesses have web addresses that end in ‘.com’ but that is not a hard and fast rule. For personal sites, or those dealing with entertainment, you can find what you need by searching to see what names are already taken. If you want ilovepuppies.org, but that name is taken, try ilovepoodlepuppies.org and see if that is there. Try the simplest name first, and then add a little until you find something that is open.

Once you have your web addresses chosen, you should make sure you put them on all of your business cards, and link to as many related sites as you can. If you have a related site, but are not in direct competition, most places will gladly post your web addresses on their site if you do the same for them. Many sites have a section just for links, and having your web addresses listed here can get you a lot of extra traffic.

Web addresses vary in price, and you have to decide whom you want to go with for service. At times, some places have sales on domain names, and you can find a cheaper price if you sign up for more than one year. You can also decide to get more services when you buy web addresses, and some of these services are definitely worth the price. You can get email with your web addresses to keep things simple. This means your email address might be Maryanne@ilovepuppies.com. There are also additional services you can get for storage space and faster uploads.
