Cafe World Becomes the Fastest Growing Social Game in History

One day my newsfeed in Facebook was perfectly normal. The next day it was covered up in stuff about some cafe – and people were wanting to hire my wife and me to work in their little restaurants. At least it seemed that way.

VentureBeat describes it this way:

When Cafe World debuted on Facebook on Sept. 30, it lit up the social network immediately. The title, a simple simulation where you make food and run a restaurant, took off faster than any other social game in history.

At the end of week one it had eight million users. After two weeks it had 15 million users.

Zynga, the company that created Cafe World, seems to have Facebook users figured out. Its other big game, FarmVille, has 56 million players (I just made level 32 there).

    Social media application is the new gold rush. I am a consultant for Facebook applications http://www.avenuesocial.com and the most successful applications we develop are simple concepts of simulation games
