Yeah Zynga sucks but this is another cautionary tale of relying on someone else's (web) platform.

Not really. Zynga isn't failing because they were screwed by a Facebook policy change or really anything Facebook themselves are doing (unlike, say, Twitter's recent API brouhaha), but because of their business model. AznHisoka in this thread said it better than I can; they have nothing to build a business on.

Facebook changed their platform right underneath them.
