Farmville, Mafia Wars and Zynga Poker - Few of the games which are a rage globally right now. They have millions of users globally and probably the highest number of database commit operations (search engines primarily display data. Database/Information updates are done by bots rather than  users in real time)

To support the above one needs to write ones own database , tweak with operating system and storage. 

Sounds exciting ? 

The good news is that the company behind it, Zynga (www.zynga.com) is in India. They are very young in India and opened up their operations earlier in 2010 - hence fast growth is inherent.

Zynga is one of the hottest companies in Silicon Valley 

In India, the companies in search and social media space are considered hot. In US folks from such companies are joining Zynga. No prizes for guessing why - the exciting work and work culture.
