As 2011 draws to a close, thought it fitting to write a short piece recapping on a few major points and of course looking forward to what 2012 may bring. A lot of people I have talked to seem to think that 2011 was a bad year for them, while I cannot offer any thoughts on how they felt for 2011, I look at 2011 as a time for chance. So what happened in 2011 and how do I see the next year progressing?

Happy New Year
Google plus – Geeks Only
Google plus has been open a while now, the initial wave of people were mostly the Geeks who were only to happy to jump on a newfangled social media ‘thing’ and to further there so called circle of friends. What is missing is ‘normal’ people, here is a comment someone posted:
Now, if I filter out Internet Friends, Following and Acquaintances from my main Google+ stream… I SEE NO UPDATES.
Why have the masses not jumped ship from Facebook or Twitter yet? What use does G+ actually have and how about the future?
The Xmas training rest period
It is said that when you are training, you have to let your body rest up, week after week of ripping the muscle and letting it grow back will take it’s toll if you do not allow the body time to fully recover. I had spoken to the gym owner and he told me that it closed 23rd Dec and re-opens 3rd Jan. As the gym closed lunch time on the 23rd Dec, that week I did a 4 day straight training session and this was hard work let me tell you. While it seems like a long time off the gym, the reality is at most you have one week off but as I am not at work also, my physical activity is lower than normal.
