There's a new poll. The question is if you use The Sims Social on Facebook. Click here to vote: New poll.
Last poll question was which animal besides cats, dogs and horses you like most. Squirrels are the definite number 1 with 39%. Parrots are also popular with almost 1 in 4 people voting for that option. Lizzards could have been left out of the game as only 6% likes those.
1501 people voted and here are the results:
Which 'critter' do you like most?
- Parrots: 23%
- Snakes: 13%
- Turtles: 19%
- Lizzards: 6%
- Squirrels: 39%

Coming Tuesday, there will be a Pets presentation in Holland. Producers George Pigula en Nicole Jenkins will show the Pets expansion to several fansites and Snooty Sims will be there too.
With all those many previews and screenshots around, I can't imagine anyone still have questions, but in case you do, just give me a mail and I'll do my very best to get the answer.

| Sims Social beats Farmville |
9 September |
|
 | Ok, I'm not really following The Sims Social but found this news quite interesting: The Sims Social just beat Farmville on Facebook in Daily Amount of Users (9,3 million).
Quite an achievement in such a short time. Only game to beat now is CityVille, ironically a SimCity clone.
Check the article here: Gamasutra article
Update: The Sims Social has now beaten Farmville also with amount of users, being over 40 million.

EA has released the Create-a-Pet Demo on the Sims3.com. With the tool, you can already create pets and share them on the Exchange.
Get it here: Create-a-Pet demo.
Update: As with all Sims games, this demo does not come without some problems. Several people that installed it, reported they are missing custom content and/or their saved games. Others can't even load up their game anymore. The cause is unknown and many people have no problems at all, but it is advised to backup your important files before using the demo.

Sims3Store update
Another new Premium Content item (item with new animations) has been added to the store. It's an Uber Sani-Sim Toilet for the price of 4 dollars/euros.
Note that animations may not work if you own another Premium Content item because of a bug that still hasn't been fixed.
