In the spirit of holiday fun, Cal Evans has founded a city somewhere in Jamacia via the MyMiniCity.com site - PHPCity:   I thought it may be fun to do a PHP community building instead of real work this close to the holidays, so I set up PHP City. To participate, just click the link to PHP City and you are a resident. If you really want to get involved, pick yourself a title (I'm Mayor McCal) and post a proclamation as a news bulletin.   There's not much to it - each visit to the site increases the population by one and there's other links to help with other areas of the city (like Industry and Transportation and others down the line). So visit our city and check out how much its grown (top 10 in the first day!) and add your hits to the growing population of PHPCity.   Other people mentioning the city: Padraic Brady, Nick Halstead
