In turn, they are obligated to return the courtesies. As the French sociologist Marcel Mauss tells us, gifts are never free: they bind the giver and receiver in a loop of reciprocity. It is rude to refuse a gift, and ruder still to not return the kindness.[11] We play Farmville, then, because we are trying to be good to one another.

While playing Farmville might not qualify as work or labor, it is certainly a productive activity, as playing Farmville serves to enlarge and strengthen social capital. Capital is defined as “any form of wealth employed or capable of being employed in the production of more wealth.”[13] New media companies like Zynga and Facebook depend upon such wealth in generating revenue, just as President Obama depends on social capital to raise money, to organize, and to communicate. Unlike President Obama, though, Zynga is not an elected official, and is not obligated to act with the public’s interests in mind".<ref>[http://mediacommons.futureofthebook.org/content/cultivated-play-farmville Cultivated Play] Liszkiewicz, A.

Capital is defined as “any form of wealth employed or capable of being employed in the production of more wealth.”[13] New media companies like Zynga and Facebook depend upon such wealth in generating revenue, just as President Obama depends on social capital to raise money, to organize, and to communicate. Unlike President Obama, though, Zynga is not an elected official, and is not obligated to act with the public’s interests in mind<ins class="diffchange diffchange-inline">"</ins>.<ins class="diffchange diffchange-inline"><ref>[http://mediacommons.futureofthebook.org/content/cultivated-play-farmville Cultivated Play] Liszkiewicz, A.

(Best article of the Year) Cultivated Play: Farmville:<br />
<br />
The structure and obligations of Farmville are very similar to those of the Tamagotchi. This article is probably the best article I've read on anthropology of digital web. <br />
<br />
----<br />
<br />
&quot;The secret to Farmville’s popularity is neither gameplay nor aesthetics. <strong>Farmville is popular because in entangles users in a web of social obligations.</strong> When users log into Facebook, they are reminded that their neighbors have sent them gifts, posted bonuses on their walls, and helped with each others’ farms. In turn, they are obligated to return the courtesies. As the French sociologist Marcel Mauss tells us, gifts are never free: they bind the giver and receiver in a loop of reciprocity. It is rude to refuse a gift, and ruder still to not return the kindness.[11] We play Farmville, then, because we are trying to be good to one another. We play Farmville because we are polite, cultivated people.<br />
<br />
(1) Farmville is defined by obligation, routine, and responsibility;<br />
(2) Farmville encroaches and depends upon real life, and is never entirely separate from it;<br />
(3) Farmville is always certain in outcome, and involves neither chance nor skill;<br />
(4) Farmville is a productive activity, in that it adds to the social capital upon which Facebook and Zynga depend for their wealth;<br />
(5) Farmville is governed not by rules, but by habits, and simple cause-and-effect;<br />
(6) Farmville is not make-believe, in that it requires neither immersion nor suspension of disbelief.<br />
<br />
Of these points, the fourth is the most troubling. While playing Farmville might not qualify as work or labor, it is certainly a productive activity, as playing Farmville serves to enlarge and strengthen social capital. Capital is defined as “any form of wealth employed or capable of being employed in the production of more wealth.”[13] New media companies like Zynga and Facebook depend upon such wealth in generating revenue, just as President Obama depends on social capital to raise money, to organize, and to communicate. Unlike President Obama, though, Zynga is not an elected official, and is not obligated to act with the public’s interests in mind&quot;. <br />
