Better Than Facebook Games

So, I've recently discovered this site called Lumosity. It's perfect for when you feel like killing time, because what it basically is is a collection of small brain training flash games. Some of them can be very addicting once you get the hang of it.

The coolest thing about Luminosity is that it keeps a personalized track of your progress and plots a stats graph for every time you play and divides the score in 5 categories: speed, memory, attention and problem solving. Your score is calculated in BPI (Brain Performance Index) Lumosity points, which are displayed on your account page for everybody too see and envy of your mental capacities. 

You can enroll in various courses, which require you to do certain exercises daily for a given period of time or just play whichever games you like and try to beat your best score. 

So, if you're interested just make an account and try a course. Oh yeah, it's got a friends list feature too and if you want to, you can add me.
