Found a new source of distraction online called Anagrammatic at miniclip.com. It’s pretty fun—you play other users online in a game of words. The object, take nine letters that you’re given (or have been selected) and find the longest word out of those series of letters. You have four rounds and then a fifth round where you have to guess the “nine-letter word”.

With every win or loss your global ranking is adjusted. On the whole, it’s a fun game but once in awhile gets kinda buggy—on about a half dozen occasions the game would freeze in the middle of gameplay. I’m not sure why that is, but it’s a bit annoying—especially when you’re winning a game. I also noticed that it is a bit resource-driven and my laptop gets a bit sluggish after a longer period of time of gameplay. I think that it is quite possible that the game slowly consumes more and more memory to run the game, a side effect of some Flash games/animations that I’ve seen over the years.
