Ever since Scrabulous was created by a couple of brothers in India, it has been a hot property on Facebook with more than 700,000 players a day. But Hasbro hasn’t taken kindly to the rip-off of its Scrabble property and has sued to remove the game from the fast-growing social network.

The New York Times has an interesting story today on the brothers and the legal controversy.
