This is a good acquisition for Zynga. Now parents will no longer be burdened with the hassle of knowing where their kids are while playing FarmVille. </sarcasm> Congratulations to the Whereoscope team :)

How, and why, do these things get leaked? Is it in either Zynga's or Whereoscope's interest to get a little PR before a sale? In other words, is this sort of thing strategic, or a lack of discipline on one party's part?<p>Whatever the case, congratulations to both sides if this comes true.

Talent acquisition for a team of 2 developers? Really? I find it hard to believe.

I assume they're acquiring them to put some sort of "limit your kid's usage of Farmville" type deal?
