Frnds here is an really interesting stufff....hope you find it useful
One of the most exciting things to watch in tech these days is various groups’ estimates for Zynga’s revenues. Depending on what you read and on what day, they are all over the map. It’s been that way for a long time too, because the social gaming service is simply growing so fast and monetizing the hell out of their properties. Now that we’re more than halfway into 2010, the consensus seems clear that Zynga made about $300 million in revenue in 2009. But 2010 is proving even tougher to nail down, it seems.
The New York Times has a feature on Zynga
that’s online now but running the paper tomorrow. In it, they cite data from Inside Network
, a service that tracks Facebook and social games, stating that Zynga is on pace to make $835 million in revenue this year. That huge — unfortunately, it’s not true. NYT actually read the data from Inside Network’s wrong. Their data
said that $835 million would be the revenue for the social gaming market as a whole in 2010.
Actually, amazing. But it’s certainly seems likely that Zynga will continue to grow and make more money as the year goes on, so again, the $835 million number may end up not being that far off.
So, will Zynga become the King in social gaming industry??
So, whats your view on this.....
