HubMob Weekly Topic: The Chinese New Year
Hello everyone, ready for another week of HubMobbing? After a successful week with 35 hubs so far for our Small Business HubMob, this week we are going to go to a very fun topic. You already know that this year on February 14th most people around the world will be celebrating Valentine's Day, but did you know that February 14th is also the start of the Chinese New Year? In some parts of the world, the celebrations last for 15 days, the time that takes the new moon to become a full moon. Let's join in the festivities and write about The Chinese New Year.
Some ideas for a HubMob hub on the Chinese New Year are:
The origin of the Chinese New Year
Regional customs and traditions for the Chinese new year
The year of the tiger
The dates for Chinese New Year, why do they vary every year.
Legends
Food
Clothing
The Chinese New Year in your country
Festivities
Practices
Symbolism and superstitions
Overseas parades
Decorations
To join this week's HubMob please follow the steps below:
1. YOU MUST START YOUR HUB CLICKING THIS LINK. Choose the Answer the Request green button. Choose the MAKE A HUB ABOUT IT option.
2. Choose a relevant title for your Hub to get a good ranking in the search engines, AVOID starting your title with "Weekly HubMob"
3. If necessary change the category on your hub to best suit your topic.
4. Include the HubMob RSS Feed in your hub: http://hubpages.com/question/37556/hubm … ew&rss For more information on how to add the RSS feed to your hub you can click here
5. Add the HubMob graphic below to your hub so that everyone who reads it will know that it is part of the official HubMob topic of the week.
6. After you publish your HubMob Hub, come back to the forum and post a link to your hub with a brief description of what you wrote about and why. Take advantage of the free publicity!
If you are still not sure about what is a HubMob and the benefits of taking part in one I created this guide http://hubpages.com/hub/What-is-a-HubMo … o-join-one please feel free to come up with any questions if you have any doubts left.

Happy Chinese New YearDid one about Chinese astrology just before the hubmob was announced. Almost my first hobmob. Damn.
I will be giving this topic a miss, while I love and respect the Chinese people I would simply be copying and pasting from somewhere else as I know nothing about the Chinese new year.......I will however read all the hubs that are created about it so that I can inform myself...

Princessa! HubPages Elite! You look good with your "e". You should get something for being a 3 year hubber too. I love the new HubPages elite program. But I got overlooked
Not any more RM, you've got recognition too.
You are doing a great job every week with the HubMob round up hubs. They can be very time consuming and you kindly give your time to promote the HubMob not every Hubber would be as dedicated as you are!
Congratulations on your "e" !!RM, what are you doing up?
Now I thought I was the only one up in the wee hours of the morning 
Well, goodnight if you are still around....Maita, I have tried lots of things. Unfortunately nothing seems to work long term, so I am constantly changing strategies. My naturopath gave me lemon balm drops which did not work. Skullcap has worked well, until suddenly it doesn't
I have at least a half dozen diffent herbal tea varieties, and it didn't cross my mind to try them last night!

I actually wrote my valentines day hub with the chinese new year as a special twist. I maybe could like to two if I can get a hub in in time! Time is so short just now but maybe I can get in on this one, might be a late comer tho
.Hi..I decided to give another try :

EnjoyCongrats Princessa and Rose Mary on your "e"s!! They suit you well!
Wheeeeew, finally finished one...
Favorite Rituals on Chinese New Year's Eve
http://hubpages.com/hub/Favorite-Ritual … -Years-EveAbsolutely no deadline! Princessa never closes the question. Sometimes I don't get a firm HubMob hub idea until Friday or Saturday. I can be slow
I frequently submit hubs to HubMobs from 1, 2, even 4 weeks back. I submitted 3 Toys hubs 4 weeks after the Toys HubMob launched. You miss some of the visibility and publicity of the HubMob week, but you can always continue to submit. And you can always email me to get it in the roundup hub.

Glad you got some much deserved rest RM.
I was born at 11:00 p.m. so it's hard for me to go to sleep prior to midnight. Chamomile or sleepy time tea usually works for me (without any sweetener of course).
Thank you to all the HubMobsters who submitted their Chinese New Year Hubs last week. You did a fantastic job! and thanks RM for gathering all those hubs in one big roundup Hub
I've just posted this week's new topic: http://hubpages.com/forum/topic/36057 have a look, and most important of all have fun writing!
