After lots of soul searching and working out the best method and design for this blog I am finally going live! This school year the blog became an anchor for students…a place they could come to download, discuss, link, inform. The first port of call for them in Humanities at SAS. With the servers being moved to China, addresses had to change thus, Theswivelchair.com was born.
My job has also change and next school year I will be the Technology Integration Specialist for grades 4 & 5 at Shanghai American School, a job with incredible potential, a job I am very excited about! However the
focus of the blog will also change from a resource that students were the main beneficiaries to now….faculty. This excites me even more as I know the ideas and the connections already made around the world will turn this into a resource centre, where I can place informative tutorials, ideas, events etc for the world to see. Trust me on this….you will not be disappointed. So bookmark, RSS, make sure you return as the wild ride begins!!

Simon,
Your new blog looks great. Congrats on the new position; SAS needs more innovators and leaders like you in the technology department to keep the blog revolution going next year when Jeff is gone! I like your design and layout, good choice going to the self-hosted site, you’ll have so much fun working on this blog, doing things you could never have done on an SAS WP MU site.
Good luck next year, I’ll continue to follow you via twitter and RSS! ~Jason
