I spent the last day or so working to totally redesign the website here at DarrenAlff.com. The redesign not only looks better, but it will allow me to share larger, wider images and to post more frequently about less important items.

After nearly a year’s worth of work, I have sold my website at SocialMediaSchools.com. I started the website while I was in Austria last year, spent several months researching the use of social media and Internet technologies in schools around the world, and created a course designed to help school administrators get set up with social media and start using tools such as Facebook and Twitter in their schools. I think I did a pretty good job on this website and I’m kind of sad to see it go.

This is the first website I have ever sold and despite the amount of work I did on it (and the potential I know it has), I let the site go for an extremely low price. My main motivation for selling the site at this point in time is that I simply have not had the time or the energy to put into the site in order to make it something really special. I hope that by selling the site and getting rid of all the work it entails, I can concentrate more on my business at BicycleTouringPro.com and really turn that site into a venture that will pay for my current and future lifestyle.

For now, however, it is time to say goodbye to Social Media Schools. I look forward to seeing what happens with the site in the future… and I wish the new owner all the best!
