For this I turn to the Urban Dictionary: http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=snood 1. A game created by Dave Dobson. The object of the game is to free all the snoods by hooking together three or more snoods of the same kind. 2. A band for the hair of a woman 3. An insult that typically has no meaning. Since the word is an insult, it is usually used in a negative context. ----- More information on the video game: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Snood Snood is a puzzle video game created in 1996 by David M. Dobson. Today, versions exist for Windows, Mac OS, Palm OS, and other systems, including the TI-83 and TI-84 calculators. It is also a downloadable cell phone game to (at least) Virgin Mobile, Cingular, and Sprint Nextel customers. Snood is similar to the game Bust a Move. To quote the instructions, "Snood is a puzzle game which emphasizes thought rather than reflexes."

the most addicting game ever. i used to play all the time in college and i would close my eyes and still see them.

While the other 2 answers were correct, the word snood existed before that great game. According to Merriam Webster: Main Entry: 1snood Function: noun Pronunciation: 'snüd Etymology: (assumed) Middle English, from Old English snOd 1 a Scottish : a fillet or band for a woman's hair b : a net or fabric bag pinned or tied on at the back of a woman's head for holding the hair 2 : SNELL

The word that was created when snoop doggy dog was in an unpleasant mood. It's the truth---fo shizzle.

I was going to say a crocheted net that goes over a bun on a lady's head, but then I saw that this was videos and PCs, so figure the word has acquired a new meaning.

Okay, I don't know anything about the game, but I can talk about women's snoods. These are rarely worn now, but they are easy to describe. You know that giant paper hairnet thing doctors & surgical staff wear? Okay. Imagine that made in black silk or black netting, and pushed back off the forehead a little bit past the very top of your head. It was an early hairnet, but meant to be decorative as well as functional, and meant to be worn all day. Long hair was considered very sexy then, and married women were expected to wear theirs covered up by a snood or caught up in buns or braids (or braids made into a bun!) Throughout the 1800s and for I don't know how many centuries before, in European and American fashion, a snood or something like it was something all "nice" adult women wore, especially the married ones. Here are many pictures of traditional snoods, including some that are quite fancy with beads, etc. The modern snood is a garment I sometimes wear myself; it's a fuzzy, wooly, warm thing that looks like a tubular scarf. You pull it over your head to your neck, to keep your neck warm, and then you pull the top edge of it up, so it goes around your face from chin to forehead, to keep your ears warm. There's a photo of that kind here too: http://images.google.com/images?q=snood&ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8&client=firefox-a&rls=org.mozilla:en-US:official&um=1&sa=N&tab=wi
