If you look at Hidden Chronicles, it was “puttering along” with only very modest growth (and a few already calling it a failure). Then over the weekend it explodes (literally). 400% growth! I can’t tell if this reflects errors in the data, changes in Facebook reporting (never had that happen before…) or Zynga finally flexing its cross-promotional muscle.
