One of the more interesting revelations of the recent 619 page document to the SEC from Zynga is the confirmation that Google was a significant investor. Zynga has raised a total of $845 million dollar in investment capital and it is believed that Google is one of the leading investors in that group.
This is the first time Zynga has disclosed that Google is an investor, despite multiple reports to the contrary, and a TechCrunch story written more than a year ago that said the investment totaled about $100 million, writes Tricia Duryee. Since then, we ve heard the investment may have been larger, and may be tied to the launch of a Google social games network that runs on top of Google+.
