so part of that new content I was talking about was the chat rooms I just added.... lol well I've actually had them sitting on here since 07. I just finally made them public. Before you go commenting about them, I do know that chat rooms are kinda like a 90's thing for the internet. All I'm going to say is that working on the chat rooms is actually part of one of the larger projects I am currently working on for the site. Hopefully I'll have something to show for that by the end of the summer. Till then you can enjoy the chat rooms.

So I am beginning to work on some new content for this site. And hopefully I plan to get the webcomic I've promised up before the year is out. Though if not that, I do have something else even better that I am working on. It's a little hush hush right now, but I'll post more info once I get parts of it working.

So one of my new years resolutions was to finally do something with this site. And that is one I fully intend to follow. I am not sure exactly where I plan to go with everything at the moment. But so far I've fixed some of the stuff on my blog page. And I plan to start posting more on it as well. Here's hoping for something good.

Recently I bought a Wii and a Wii Fit as I came to the conclusion that it is probably cheaper then paying for a Gym Membership I won't use. So far it's been pretty good, and I enjoy doing the workouts at home rather then going to a gym. However, as I unlocked and tried new exercises, I started to notice something that was a little frustrating.

If you haven't used the Wii Fit, whats wrong with you everyone has!, *laughs* seriously though, it's an exercise "game" that uses a board to measure the pressure you put on it and can track your center of balance. On the screen a trainer shows you what you are "supposed" to be doing, and it uses the board to attempt to figure out if you are doing it correctly. And that is where my frustrations have come from, and I'm sure anyone else who has played it will know what I am to say.

Before you start a new exercise, the trainer will show you how it is done. The trainer will usually move very slowly and pause to try to point out how you should be moving and look doing it. However, once the exercise starts and you are being measured, the trainer moves 10x faster. Being the first time attempting an exercise, it often becomes hard to keep the same pace as the trainer while you are still trying to do it correctly. Of course if you fall or become unbalanced, the trainer just keeps going. Then comes my favorite part. On most of the exercises the trainer will tell you to move "slowly" and focus on making sure you are moving the correct muscles. BUT the trainer is not moving slowly at all! So if you even attempt to slow down and do what the trainer asks, you fall behind in reps fast. Thus forcing you to re-do the exercise if you want to get in some of the reps you missed.

This isn't something that would make me stop using it, but it is a gripe that I am sure I am not alone in feeling. I'd love to hear some other stories.
