Farmville one of Time's '50 Worst Inventions'

Time magazine recently released its list of "The 50 Worst Inventions", counting popular Facebook game application Farmville among "one of the world's bright ideas that just didn't work out." Time bemoaned Farmville's "mindlessness," pointing out the game's repetitive nature even as it begrudgingly acceded that the virtual farm app is "the most addictive of Facebook games". "(Farmville) is hardly even a game —it's more a series of mindless chores on a digital farm, requiring the endless clicking of a mouse to plant and harvest crops," Time said. Still, Time noted that "more than 10% of Americans" log into Farmville, citing statistics from the game's developer, Zynga. Also included on Time's list of worst inventions are such bizarre creations as the Electric Facial Mask and Venetian-Blind Sunglasses, as well as those banes of online existence, Spam E-mail and Pop-Up Ads.
