SimGuruTaterTot has written a blog about the upcoming world Aurora Skies.

My favorite thing about Aurora Skies? Hands down? The northern lights (or Aurora Borealis to some).  If you have any cloud cover at night in Aurora Skies – you’ll see the northern lights. The more clouds in the sky – the brighter it looks -- up to a certain point! Thick, stormy clouds won't show the northern lights. If you watch the skies long enough, you’ll notice that it’ll change colors as well.

The lovely Cheetah has written the final part of our hands-on!

Quick! Go read!

The past few days several SimCity blogs have been added on the SimCity website. I haven't had time to add all of them separately seeing as we're very busy with the server and the new website. But I didn't want to keep all the cool stuff from you guys. So here's a combined post about the new blogs.

The first one is about making money in a high-tech city. The second blog is about SimCity for Mac. And the third blog is about the Sandbox mode in SimCity.

Hi Simmers!

Thanks again for joining us on January 8 for The Sims Live Broadcast where we officially announced The Sims 3 University Life! For those of you who missed it, you may watch the archived recording here . We're thrilled to see all your eager comments and excitement on the forums and we know you have lots of questions for this upcoming EP. Last week, I tackled SimGuruArgus to get him to answer as many of your questions posted in our thread as possible. He thought you all had some really great questions and he's posted the responses below.

Tonight we will post part 3 (which is also the final part) of our SimCity hands-on preview. For now I would like you to visit our colleagues Platinum Simmers and Simparool, who also attended the event and both have articles online! Platinum Simmers have an English written article, and Simparool's article is in Dutch. But I'm sure Google Translate can help you if you want to read it! Both have unique screenshots as well.

Well, part 2 of our SimCity hands-on preview is online! Curious?

Earlier this month we were invited on a SimCity event in The Netherlands. It's actually the first time I didn't attend an event myself. Instead, Cheetah (who you may all know from The Sims Zone) attended the event for me. Big thanks to Cheetah for attending the event and for writing up a nice article as well. The next few days we'll add the other parts.
