Wii rings in the New Year
I’m off to sing the praises of the Nintendo Wii again!

Yesterday evening, PC World posted a tech guide to getting fit this new year. I don’t think any of us should be surprised that Wii Fit was first mention. I’ve personally witnessed two people losing pounds by using Wii Fit. Hell, my doctor recommends it (and boasts that she’s a yoga master.)
The effectiveness of Wii Fit isn’t too questionable: after all, it’s exercise. What’s best is that it’s a form of exercise more adapted to today’s gamer culture. You don’t have to get dressed up, pay monthly fees, go outside, or drive somewhere to do Wii Fit. If you want to exercise in your thong and nothing else, go for it. It’s great for those of us who live in winter weather too. It just requires discipline and self-moderation.
