Zynga adds new social features to Android version of Words With Friends

Words With Friends is that highly addictive Scrabble styled game that Actor Alec Baldwin wouldn't turn off while awaiting take off on a flight. Baldwin was subsequently tossed off the plane. An update to the game is now available from the Google Play Store and is said to include some new social features. You can even now invite friends to a Words With Friends match-up using SMS messaging. If you like chaos, imagine playing twenty games simultaneously!

Also part of the update is a homescreen short cut that is automatically installed when the game is installed. If for some reason you have never played it before, you should give it a shot. The free version is ad supported so you might want to brace yourself for the tons of ads that bombard you after each turn. Despite that, WWF is a great game to play to meet new friends and to expand your vocabulary. You can pick up the game by clicking on the sourcelink.
