Hey guys. Are any of you feeling totally jealous of all your friends on Twitter and Facebook because they figured out how to play this game that is sweeping the world but we can’t? Well I have good news for y’all. We actually can. I did my first one yesterday. If you are on chrome, there’s just an extension you can run. If you are on iOS, there’s a little piece of code that you have to run. But here comes a link explaining how to do everything.

That’s the chrome extension.

That one is the iPhone JavaScript thing. It takes a little bit to get that one started, but once you do it it will work easily. Also just so you know, you can use letters in a word more than once. so yesterday’s word had the letters E and R. I got those rightbut it didn’t tell me that I might be able to use another E. So you can do that just so you know. Also important to know. When you are reading through to see if you got the letters correct, if they are correct but in the wrong order they will say present. If they are correct and in the right order they will say correct.It’s fun, it’s challenging, and now we can play with all of our friends. You’re welcome.
