Farmville: "Telling It Like It Is"
Posted: Wednesday March 10th, 2010 by

My mom and I have talked about this several times. Not because it bore multiple discussions but rather because she forgot that we'd discussed it before. Of course when I tell her something like "Farmville is a virus" she takes me seriously. Whoops.

But from my perspective, it is. It infects people. Then they spread it to people they know because the disease drives them to assist in the propagation. The application and its status spam have long since been blocked on my Facebook account. I haven't played it. It's unlikely that I ever will.

So why is there a comic here about it? Well apparently it's played by 32 million people per day. [more info] That stat netted it a news article. And even if it annoys the crap out of me that number is worth a nod of grudging respect and exactly one comic.
