How long would anybody want to do virtual farming ? Wasnt it also listed on teh stock market recently ?

Edit: Also layoffs announced in the middle of Ipad Mini launch, clever strategy!

Anyone who has been following the Zynga story will tell you.... their entire valuation was a bunch of horse tulip. They went from nothing to $billion or whatever it is practically within a year.

This is a bubble, a mini bubble which is gonna hurt lots of mugs. If you invested in Zynga wtf were you thinking.

Too busy working.

I follow a few local start up networks, there seems to be loads of small companies around that have written a mobile app to do the most basic thing and who have been given funding. No chance of profit.
