If there’s anything you guys keep writing is that you have to be honest and be ready to suffer the consequences of free and fluid information and speech. Well, here is one example where twittering isn’t enough to comunicate, especially at this point.

And by the way, Folha blurs it all because it was a blured situation, and Zynga let it be blured.

Look at Africa…still the same after many years.

It is better to invest in entrepreneurs in developing countries, who are building community projects via tech, farming etc.

A good headline should draw readers, but it should also tell people what the post is about, and mine didn’t really do that as completely as it could have. Thanks again for the input.

So, in the end, I agree with the others, if indeed they are getting unfairly slammed then the title would have been better as Jason suggested.

It would be even better if you stated it outright in the post if that’s what you think. It really took me a bit to try and figure out whether it was unfair or not. Don’t make us think! God forbid you give us the information and we have to make up our own mind – that’s some old fangled notion of journalism.

Starting tonight, Zynga (www.zynga.com) will run a special relief campaign in three of its top games that reach over 40 million users daily.

It seemed to me that this blatantly took advantage of PR Newswire and others’ waiving of distribution fees for Haiti earthquake-related news.

I was speculating but I’ve always been skeptical of such campaigns by hard-to-trust startups. I was impressed by Zynga’s earlier partnership with the World food Programme over the holidays but hadn’t seen any mention of its results.

You can’t be too transparent when acting in the wake of any disaster. While Zynga made no mistake in clearly mentioning it’s user base (both daily and monthly) the press release — especially if it was distributed gratis — should have elaborated on Zynga’s existing relationship with WFP to avoid any fingerpointing / confusion.

Wait a sec. Aren’t you contributing to the misinformation and the unwarranted backlash by titling your piece, “Zynga Gets Slammed Over Haiti Donations”. I know it’s a catchy headline and likely to drive some good traffic to your article, but if you truly believe that this is a red herring issue why didn’t you title the article “Zynga Unfairly Slammed Over Haiti Donations”. Hypocrisy renders its ugly head again. Shame.
