Zynga Prices Initial Public Offering at $10 per Share

Say you're a company that makes bull shit, puts it on a platform, and then charges people who really like bull shit to play it. Now imagine all that shit you've got is worth a lot of money. You can't even believe people are eating this shit up! Might as well aim for the stars!

In other news, Zynga offered the Initial Public Offering at $10 per share. Zynga currently runs CityVille, FarmVille, Words With Friends, CastleVille, Zynga Poker, Empires & Allies, Indiana Jones Adventure World, The Pioneer Trail, Mafia Wars, and Cafe World.

I have not played any of those games.

    I think I played Mafia Wars, or maybe I just read what it was about somehwere, can't remember.

    What I do remember is a friend showing me FarmVille and how it worked, and how to interact with friends and how... at which point I got bored and left.

    Didn't Zynga start out by spamming the crap out of everyone on Newgrounds? >_>

    That's awesome. I was going to say, haven't Zynga stocks been on a downward trend anyway? I would have paid $10 for one like 5 years ago.
