    And this is how we can get it to grow:

    To improve HubPages, you only have to give the following links to your friends or post them in your blog. Each different click will improve HubPages! http://hubpages.myminicity.com/

    Who wants to waste one minute a day with me and see how big the City of HubPages can grow?

    I'll waste a minute

    That site is neat...did you design it?

    I don't quite get all of it though....it's like a "Sim City" type thing, right?

      No, it's not my site.

      It's a fun idea though.

      Each click adds to the growth of the city. And that's pretty much it. It should be interesting to see how large it grows.

      Just went over to our city to see if I could get a job, Funride.  A new factory has opened . What a town--no pollution, no crime and we are up to 57 inhabitants. I promise I'll go back tomorrow.

    WeddingConsultantposted 16 years ago

    Mr. Mayor, maybe it would help others if you explained how to be good, productive citizens in our city?  To be honest, I don't know enough about it.  Do I increase the population if I repeatedly visit the city?  How does the population increase?  How do we start industries?

    Those are just some of my questions...

    But I don't think you should retire as major just because the city is not doing well!

      I couldn´t agree more with you Zsuzsy. Lets keep it green smile.



      You just have to visit http://hubpages.myminicity.com to populate;
      http://hubpages.myminicity.com/ind to decrease Unemployment (build industries);
      http://hubpages.myminicity.com/tra to increase transports.

        Does that mean we can only click on one of the links (like the population or transport) or can we click each one once?

    I don´t think that´s a good idea (there are several hubbers with fear of flying big_smile), maybe we could arrange for teleportation facilities lol.

      Do you really mean that?  Because I scanned Peter Lopez's fanmail and saw that you wrote this:
