The Family Exchhange on the official site has reopened. You can now publish your families again, in the improved exchange. Searching has been improved and is now more accurate. Uploading should be faster and easier, and details are now displayed in pop-ups so "won't lose your place when browsing". The Sims and SimCity fans, as well as the fans of SimGolf which was released in Europe last week can now exchange their items again as before - but easier. At least, that are the words of Maxis. You can go to The Sims exchange here.
