Why not? Seemed like a good way to expirament with the capabilities of node.js, HTML5 WebSockets, and real-time web applications.

Go to the project directory in a terminal and type the following command.

node server.js [http=<port>] [ws=<port>] [wordfile=<path>]

###Program arguments

1. http | httpPort = Server port for http requests (default is 8090)
2. ws | wsPort = Server port for web socket requests (default is 8091) Note that if you change the web socket port, the parameter will also need to be changed in the index.html file
3. wordfile = A JSON file which contains the words to be used in the game

Open up the game by navigating to the url http://localhost:8090 (or the http port specified in the program arguments), and start dragging around some words. Try opening up a couple browsers and watch what happens. Try with a couple friends. Have Fun!

Tested on latest version of Chrome/FireFox/IE

1. Make it more real-time (see words move as another user moves them, instead of after they drop them) without sacrificing performance.
2. Not quite sure yet...
