Why Facebook Zynga Google: Google invests in Farmville-maker Zynga: Bad for Facebook? Zynga confirms Google is a major investor Zynga dependent on Facebook for revenue: Facebook controls Zynga to a much deeper extent than we originally thought. It's vital for Google to kill Facebook. Google probably invested to get tons of data from inside Facebook's social network.
Word of Google’s investment in Zynga has been floating around for more than a year. The news was originally reported by Michael Arrington at TechCrunch, who said Google had thrown in around $100 million. (Later reports estimated that the number was closer to $200 million.) According to Arrington’s report, the deal was a “high strategic” move against Facebook. It’s possible that the Zynga investment is part of Google’s plan to build its own social gaming network that would run in conjunction with Google+.
