Zynga Has Players Literally Collecting Virtual Crap
July 7, 2010 8:00 AM | Eric Caoili

FarmVille developer Zynga has another hit on its hands with FrontierVille, a pioneering sim that's picked up an amazing 16.3 monthly active users in just a few weeks, making it the fastest growing app on Facebook for some time now.
Looking to reward its players, the social game developer unveiled the Manure Collection, a new set of virtual items that players could gather over the holiday weekend -- finding them all unlocked the saltpeter item, which users needed to create fireworks.
The Manure Collection included a variety of alliterative animal crap -- Poultry Puddin', Piggy Poop, Brush Brownie, Prairie Pile, and Meadow Muffin -- produced by virtual sheep, horses, goats, and other creatures in FrontierVille.
GameLife, which discovered and pointed out the collection, notes that virtual goods have now reached their "poop-stained nadir".

When are they going to put out more applications so people other than those with the iphone can use the features on farmville/facebook?
I wouldn't mind paying a fee...it will weed out those not interested in it and never play their farm again after their first visit. I am sure that this has clogged up a lot of space on the servers.
