Here’s a nice little surprise for all you PlayCafe fans out there.

He will be playing the game along with everyone else at home to see if he’s still smarter than the players. Click here to play along and get involved.

This is going to be very interesting, and it will bring a lot of attention to the show.
Ken, as a regular PlayCafe player, I look forward to you being on the show, and I only have one other thing to say…
Bring it on!
defintely be interesting since most of the questions are about pop culture, plus the emphasis is on speed. and they are giving away at least 1 copy of his new book which is supposed to be a very good read. I just hope the playcafe server can handle the TON of people who will be playing that night. the show runs a little late here on the east coast and I have to help a friend move in the morning but I’ve gotta play at least 1 game its Ken Jennings!
Mark, I don’t see why not, after all, the server was able to handle the traffic brought by IJustine, the net’s best known lifestreamer.
well no offence kaos but Ken Jennings is A LOT more well-known that IJustine (I’ve never even heard of her)
Well, for those of you who tried to play, thanks, but unfortunately, the servers did have trouble. Sorry folks. From what I could see, Ken was having a good time.
I did manage to play a while and they had some trouble all throughout the show, (they were jokingly saying ken’s big brain overloaded the server) after the 2nd round of the first show, they said to refresh if you were having trouble, i did and i couldn/t get back on anymore, I’m disapointed. anyone on here manage to play until the bonus game did Ken win anything?
