Social gameing on Facebook is growing in popularity. 2010 looks to be the year of the social game.
Half of all users on Facebook now play social games. More impressively, 40% of total usage time on the service is spent on these types of games. That’s significant, obviously, because a large amount of the Internet is on Facebook.
The social games industry is expanding as well, and it’s not all about Zynga. Social games maker Playdom was acquired by Disney a couple of days ago for a deal possibly worth more than $750 million.
