Farmville maker valued at $2.61 billionتقييم الشركة التي طورت لعبة “فارم فيل” بأكثر من بليونين ونصف من الدولارات

Private companies tend to keep their financial data locked away from preying eyes, and so calculating their value is not easy. One of the many ways to do that is by tracking down the shares’ buying and selling transactions of such private companies, and that’s what SharesPost’s website does. Lately, SharesPost published its first value index, comprised of seven leading venture backed private companies. Of interest to us is Zynga, the company behind some of the most successful social networking games out right now, including Facebook’s Farmville, Mafia Wars, Word Twist, and Scramble. Zynga’s games can be found on Facebook, MySpace, Bebo, Friendster, and Hi5. It’s estimated that 12 million daily active users play Zynga games across social networks and iPhone.

Blur to tweet لعبة “بلر” ستكون مربوطة مع موقع تويتر

Bizarre Creation’s Ben Ward sent out a tweet yesterday, showcasing how Blur will have a Twitter feature built into the game.

“When playing the game, you can hit the Left Bumper at (almost) any time, and “Share” details of your profile to Twitter. This could be info on who you’ve just beaten in a race, which rank you’ve reached in the leaderboards, how many events you’ve completed, and a whole bunch more.“

Previously, Uncharted 2 was such a game that allowed players to tweet from within the game. Unlike Blur’s “almost” real time Tweeting ability however, Uncharted 2 had predefined settings that allowed the player to send out a tweet whenever some significant milestones had been reached in the game, including Trophies. This feature led to some spoilers for the game before it came out as press reviewers were unintentinally tweeting their game progress for the whole world to see.
