Look! This is a book, you can read. No one needs to read this out to you. You get more in this book. This book is a game that shows how you can make a book with the words you know. ========================= This morning, a business idea occurred to me; this idea could be worth million dollars. I like to introduce a Scrabble-like game called WorDuzzle - a short version of Word-Puzzle. WorDuzzle is a game which consists of a book or instruction manual and a box of simple words that children usually know. In the box of my grandchildren, I have put 900 words in a very big specially designed match box. I have not put the scoring rules in the book so far. But if this game is manufactured in a large scale, I would introduce a scoring algorithm similar to Scrabble, so that adults enjoy playing this game even without including any children. WorDuzzle is one step ahead of Scrabble. The building blocks of Scrabble are letters or alphabets, while the building blocks of WorDuzzle are simple words. Can we jump to recognising words, without caring for letters that make the words? Don't we do that in our day-to-day conversation?I think such WorDuzzles will easily sell for about $20 and this will provide fun not only to children but the adults as well. In the Internet age, we may like to play with words instead of alphabets, as we used to do with Scrabble like games. This is more natural to illiterates, similar to Talking.****I am looking for a manufacturer of Scrabble-like games.

About the Author: Suppose the author Parames Ghosh is no one else but a common person like you. Writing is not the profession that wins bread for you; you could not risk your hard-earned money in writing or publishing books. But you feel, you have a duty to share your vision of the World with No Boundaries with all citizens of the world. You know, a book is never as complete as the life itself and you are not an author who fathoms the depths of emotions, zooms on the moments of the memoirs and weaves those priceless gems into a seamless tapestry of narration. You look at the way things happen mainly because we religiously follow traditions, even though presumptions behind those traditions are no longer valid. You develop a vision for making minimum changes to traditional boundaries to make this world a better place for every citizen, to live in and work for. You have travelled around the world; you have listened to people of different countries, collaborated with them in projects. You came of a lower middle class family in a developing country. Your family accepted that it is your fate to be poor, yet they cared for you, and one another. Your parents and your siblings were your entire world; anyone in the family was prepared to sacrifice his/her share for the benefit of other members of the family. The ethos that your parents instilled in you in your childhood, you followed assiduously throughout your life, in search of the truth. A graduate Engineer specialised in cold rolling of steel tubes, you accepted the challenge of starting EDP in one organisation. You strived to develop computer-awareness in the society across industries. You migrated to a developed country and continued your endeavour by coupling your business vision with academic brilliance. You became an MBA, Master of Computing and PhD of computing only by part-time studies. You introduced architecture for integrating bank applications - perhaps with a mission of integrating the world later. You taught in the university, helped research collaboration between your employer and the university. You served banks worldwide, integrated mainframe-based applications with multiple channels of WWW, mobile phone, call-centre etc. You thought it is your duty to become a visionary of a world where citizen would know no country boundaries, no family boundaries. Inspired by the connectivity achieved by Internet, you now envisage - Let's belong to our World and Let World belong to us - to work for and to live in.
