I was chatting with a friend a couple of days ago, and the conversation inevitably turned into a discussion about Dubai and how quickly it's grown and how busy it's become.
He came up with an interesting analogy for Dubai. He said "Dubai is like a Sim City game,. They see that there's too much traffic in a certain area, and "pouf!", just like magic, a new flyover comes up. Another day it's: oh, there's an empty plot of land right there, and again, just like magic, a new tower comes up".
It's so true! It really is like a Sim City game!
Oh, and I love Sim City...but I'm not so sure I love Dubai as much, although it's growing on me, slowly but surely...

a very apt analogy!
nice, short and sweet :)
hey there, one major differences between dubai and sim city
you can turn off the game when you have had enough, still looking for such a button here
enjoy the blog
Sometimes, I wonder, if Dubai is gonna hold under all these buildings, lol
And if u look at the google pics of dxb, the high rise buildings do seem like the buildings in SimCity!!
very cute analogy!
been over twice on holiday's and stayed with some locals. Love to visit the place and the people, but, don't think I could live there with the lack of traffic flow logistics (although taxi cabs arent expensive). Will be back again in 2008 for a wedding.
Musandam Dibba is the key part of dubai trip.
