Colony Guidelines

Colony History

Content:

Each colony has a specific theme and distributes content based on that theme.  Residents are encouraged to live in areas that present themes and content that are of interest to them.  This will help to maximize the benefit of your citizenship in Cybertown.

What content does Hi-Tek provide?

Hi-Tek provides information and content about the latest scientific and engineering breakthroughs in many fields, and also provides resources relating to the latest and hottest technologies available, and even some that are in planning and research stages.

Each block message board contains a segment of our PortalNet.  Each piece contains resources relating to the topic of the block.  Each house message board is served with a complimentary news center called Hi-Tek Today.  This serves as our website and has links to colony resources, and provides news from the colony and around the high tech world.
