Website
Droodles used to be a website publishing cartoons of this sort for us to guess. I remember it from my college days but I hadn't realised it had been so long since I last looked at it - going by the Internet Archive [1] the last droodle was put up on the site in 2002, but the ghost site remained there until mid-2010.
Does anybody else here remember this site? It's strange that the article just doesn't mention it. Moreover, did the website actually have any official connection with Roger Price, or was it just an unofficial site that copied the name? It would be nice if we could find some more information about it and write about it here. — Smjg (talk) 23:32, 13 January 2014 (UTC)
