No Ward Bell. You're wrong. Also, why does everyone seem to be emphasizing this fantastic new technology, HTML5? HTML5 is just good ole fashioned HTML with a few new tags. I assume they're not calling out the header tag, or the nav tag, or

This is par for the course for Zynga who have made a successful company by stealing the lunches of creative companies and developers. Don't be surprised when an evil company acts evil. Just don't work for evil companies.
