Zynga has acquired OMGPOP, adding Draw Something to its list of popular social and mobile gaming titles. Zynga reportedly paid OMGPOP for some $180 million, plus another $30 million in employee retention, right in line with what Om Malik reported last week. That might seem like a lot, but Draw Something is a huge success: The app has more than 35 million downloads and a totally engaged audience of 15 million daily users.
Windows Phone owners have good reason to hit their app store today: Wunderlist, a free task management app, has landed on the platform. The software, found in the Windows Marketplace, offers cloud-based task synching and the ability to email tasks directly to the app.

“Many years ago it became abundantly clear that some way had to be found to shield programmers from the complexity of the hardware… [T]his layer is the operating system.” —Andrew Tanenbaum, Operating Systems

Zynga made a huge acquisition Wednesday, snapping up Draw Something producer OMGPOP for a reported $200 million-plus price tag. But let’s be clear: What Zynga is picking up isn’t just a hit game, the team that built it, or even the 35 other titles that OMGPOP has created over the last six years. And it’s not just buying potential ad or in-game sales revenue from Draw Something users. What Zynga’s really buying is a huge engaged audience that it can funnel into its other social gaming properties.
Sub Pop, Ninja Tune, Matador: Record labels used to be known as curators of a certain sound, and collectors would sometimes buy every new release on their favorite labels. The weight of an iconic label has largely disappeared in the age of digital music, but Spotify is now offering record companies another chance to prove their chops as curators. The music subscription service is launching a second batch of apps for its desktop application this week, and some of the new partners include Def Jam, Domino, Pias, Warner Music and Matador Records.
