Farm Town Weekly Season III Episode 6

Monday, March 22nd, 2010

Farm Town Weekly Season III Episode 6What a show. We had a difficult time getting started and had to actually start everything over again but once we got going we had a really good time. Ms. Kelly, Mountain Mamma, Jennie G, and Data Sheet Dave joined me on the call. Later during the show we had a wonderful surprise when Sandi Lopez called in all the way from Portugal. (We love you Sandi!) and a very nice gentlemen with the user name of Mushroom Hunter also called and visited with is a while.

The topics ranged from the new items and facilities on Farm Town to the ever changing landscape of social media. We also had a somewhat passionate discussion on the health care reform bill. What a great group we have to be able to talk about such issue from both sides of the political fence.

I’m already looking forward to getting together with you all next Monday evening at 7:30 Central on TalkShoe.com – Hope you enjoy listening.

Farm Town Adds Extra Holiday Items

Late additions to the Farm Town Gift page

Late additions to the Farm Town Gift page

You have probably noticed the 4 new holiday gift items available to give as gifts to your neighbors. There is the Holiday Pig and Dog and 2 tress with lights which are the Pine and Palm tree.

Something else I noticed this early morning is that when you visit the Christmas tab in the Farm Town Store there is a gift icon beside three of the items. Clicking on that icon highlighted in the illustration below will prompt the “Request as Gift” feature allowing you to post the item to your wall on Facebook as a wish list of sorts.

Notice the Small House with Lights

Do you see what I see? There is a “Small House with Lights” which one can buy for only 30,000 regular Farm Town coins, but it also has the gift box icon allowing you to request it as a gift. I don’t see this house on the regular Farm Town gift page so I wonder if it was an error that they placed it there along with the new items.

I will say, if I notice someone post this house in a Request as Gift post today I will buy it for them because I want to see if this is an error or a sign of things to come as there have been times when I wanted to send Store Items as gifts but that is not a feature I have seen before today.

I think it would be great if we could buy things from the Farm Store for our neighbors and would also like to be able to transfer Farm Cash to them as well. I have had occasion when a neighbor was just a couple farm dollars away from buying an item she wanted and I would have been happy to transfer a couple of mine to her because I didn’t really have enough to buy anything I wanted anyway so why not. Anyway, looks like Slashkey is still tinkering in their holiday workshop.
