    Facebook cuts off Scrabulous after legal complaint - Yahoo! News

    Are they serious?!? The developers' decision to EXACTLY COPY a trademarked game "speaks volumes about their business practices". They wanted to make a lot of money without any real effort. Mattel is just taking action to protect something that they created. These developers are really getting on my nerves.

    Quoted: A highly popular Scrabble clone already pulled from Facebook in the United States and Canada continued its tumble over the weekend as the online hangout extended its block of the game throughout most of the world.

    "It surprises us that Mattel chose to direct Facebook to take down Scrabulous without waiting for the (Indian court's) decision," Agarwalla said. "Mattel's action speaks volumes about their business practices and respect for the judiciary."

    FORTUNE: Techland RIP Facebook? «

    interesting little blurb about the supposed "fall" of facebook.

    Quoted: A lot of people say that Facebook has jumped the shark. That’s flat out wrong. In fact, Facebook is now being devoured by the shark. There’s so much blood in the water, it’s attracting other sharks. And if Facebook’s not careful, one of them is bound to come along and finish it off. I’ve never seen anything like it in the annals of fast-rising tech companies that fail.
