GameZebo: Like boredom in Iowa, farm games are unavoidable. Even if you don't play them, you've probably received an abundance of Facebook requests from friends and family who do. It matters not that you've only met Tim once -- if you can aid him in his quest for virtual crop dominance, the two of you could become the best of friends. FarmVille has in many ways been the poster child of this craze, as evidenced by its massive user base and licensed products like ice cream.

Zynga:
We wanted to share with the r/bitcoin community that Zynga Inc. is now conducting a Bitcoin test with BitPay, a leading Bitcoin service provider, in select Zynga web games.
I wish more companies used Bitcoin. It's the future, but it's taking too damn long.
Do people still believe in Zynga? I want bitcoins to be put in the forefront, but wish Zynga wasn't the ones pushing it...
Zynga trying to cash in on the game to make more money from crappy micro-transactions crap...
I wonder if I can request my bonus in bitcoins instead of company stock and/or cash :P
