Zynga games are expected to roll out on the Yahoo! network in the coming months and will include:
- Ability for people to play Zynga games and access their personal Zynga game updates across Yahoo!'s properties including the Homepage, Yahoo! Games, Yahoo! Mail, Yahoo! Messenger and others.
- Sharing of updates across multiple social experiences simultaneously while playing Zynga games on Yahoo!
- Product integration of Zynga games with the Yahoo! Application Platform (YAP), Yahoo!'s OpenSocial container through which third-party developers can develop applications on Yahoo!
