Policemen tells off cyclist, more Google+ fun and Toy Story

Great fun on the way home from work tonight. A cyclist did the usual jump the red light and move to the other side of a crossing trick to get ahead of the pack. This is the the way in central London. Thankfully he was spotted by a policeman who told him that what he had done was wrong and he was then made to return back to the line by the red light! The cyclist was so NOT impressed. Nice one Mr Policemen, you made my day and made me chuckle. If only there were more policeman about to keep the cyclists in check (sorry Matt)!

Had more fun playing around with Google+ today and trying various things out. If you are going to check out Google+ then I would recommend that you use Google Chrome to enhance the experience!

Google+ URL shortening links can be created here on this handy site: http://gplus.to/

Google+ still continues to impress me and I'll be delighted if it starts to catch on (as long as they don't go down the crap app route). It really is like a halfway house between Twitter and Facebook (without all the bloat of FB).

There is an interesting article on Google+ here (thanks Shaun):

Downloaded a great Twitter client that integrates with Google+. You can get it here:

One last thing before I go, a nice little extension that changes the Google+ CSS slightly and makes the presentation slightly better.

So that's me all Google+'d out for now!

Had a nice relaxing evening at Toni's and we thoroughly enjoyed snuggles and watching the first Toy Story movie. It is such a great film and all the hidden jokes still make me chuckle.
