Zynga Q2 Financials: Profits Crater, Active Users Melt Away

[Do4600]

Zynga became big in the first place because it was a pioneer in a new platform, Facebook gaming. Facebook gaming is just a bubble that is bursting like the .com bubble. The internet didn't go away after the bubble burst but it shrunk and threw out or weakened many companies. The same will be true of social site gaming.

Don Mattrick can talk bullish about Zynga's future [http://www.escapistmagazine.com/news/view/126338-Don-Mattrick-Details-His-Plans-to-Turn-Zynga-Around] if he chooses..

I choose to read 'bullish' as 'bullshit'.

They may well be looking into it but I've not seen an explanation or their thoughts on why this has all happened. Never mind though eh? Transition to mobile, become one with Facerosoft Goopple.

Holy crap. I read that as bullshit, because it fit so perfectly. Also, JUST DIE ALREADY YOU 3 HEADED MONSTER! BE SLAIN! BE GONE! GIVE US BACK OUR PRINCESSES! (If there is any).

So, he jumped from a ship on fire that looked like it might sink to a ship already under about 20ft of water? This guy really knows a thing or two about job stability.

He also knows that CEO in front of your name ensures that no matter what happens to the company, he's guaranteed financial stability for life. Something a Project Leader does not have. Everyone at Zynga is there just to pad out CVs, nothing more. They know where the train is going.

So the next step would be to end up clinging to the iceberg and dying of frostbite then? I'm liking this analogy more and more...

good, a one sinking ship full of feces are going to drag a stinking captain down with it!

In this case it roughly amounts to the same thing.
