Bingo Smoking Ban

It seems as if anyone is talking nowadays about the smoking ban. Online bingo sites are probably happy with it, since players who are deprived from their right to smoke while playing, will probably search some other ways to play bingo without to visit the non-smoking bingo rooms.

Personally, I don't smoke, I never liked to smoke and I never thought that it gives me any new pleasure that playing bingo can't do without. But, my friends usually smoke when we play poker or bingo together, and I never really cared about it. It was just something that happened, and it didn't changed anything for me during the game.

Yet I must add that one of the coolest things in online bingo rooms is that fact that I can sit around and play my favorite online bingo games without to be annoyed by the smoke. It is sure healthier and I can definitely understand those players that will choose to quit their old bingo habits and start playing at online bingo sites. It might be hard for the land-based bingo industry, but this is how things go, I guess.

The history of online bingo

I was thinking, that I never really took time to learn about bingo history.
I'm a well-educated man, if I may say so, and I'm usually interested in the origins of things like that, but somehow I always avoided reading about bingo in Wikipedia or other information websites.

I was chatting with a friend on one of the online bingo chat rooms the other day, and he asked me if I knew that bingo was played with beans at first, I was surprising, but I recall that I heard something about it somewhere in the past. I checked it on Wikipedia and it was correct. Online bingo DID start as a game of beans called "Beano".

I think I'll take some time now to read and learn more about the game, I just feel that its the right thing to do for someone like me who is definitely into online bingo games.
