Has a lot of work ahead of them.

Losing 33 million customers in a quarter is never a good sign.

Did Zynga ever do anything other than casual games that seemed to be popular for 15 minutes? I'm not aware of any games from Zynga that would appeal to serious gamers, rather than folks who play what appear to be a fad for a short time.

The only thing Zynga ever had going for it was bad Facebook games and micro transactions. Not sure why Don is so in love with the company. He even tried to buy them like 3 years ago.

That's what I thought. I never understood why anyone ever thought the company would be a big money maker.

If we're lucky, Don will bring more legitimate games to Zynga.

Maybe he tried to buy it and sell it to Facebook? lol

All Zynga did for the world was spew crap all over just about every Facebook wall.
