Google is in talks with some of the biggest developers in the social games field with a mind to building a social gaming platform.

The Wall Street Journal are in talks with Playdom, Playfish and Zynga on building a new social network and gaming platform.

Google has already sunken somewhere between 100 and 200 million USD into Zynga confirming its interest in social gaming.

They also recently hired games industry vet Mark Deloura as their developer advocate for games as a further indication of their intentions.
