omgpop of draw something? they’re gone now.
Remember omgpop? The creators of Draw Something who were acquired by Zynga for $200m?
They were all fired today, along with all of the other 520 employees.
I learned via Facebook I was laid off today and @omgpop office is closed. Thanks @zynga for again reminding me how not to operate a business

BRUTAL! I asked @omgpop where they were heading now that they’re gone, and this is the official response I received:
@swb1192 To a bar, as quickly as possible!

It’s amazing how a company can go from $200m acquisition to VPs learning they were fired by Facebook and closed doors.
