My friend Jason and I started VideoExperiment.com a little over a year ago. Our original intention was to produce videos we thought could go viral, and then see how we could monetize on it. This was the “experiment”. Unfortunately we had no time/were too lazy to make videos, and it turned more into a, lets share our favorite online videos sort of blog.? It was cool because instead of our circle of friends IMing links to funny videos, we could just post it on the site and our friends would see them there. The downside was it completely lost scope of what we planned.

On that note, we decided now is the time to take it off our list responsibilities and sell the site. It doesn’t generate that much traffic (about 500 uniques a month), but it’s a great domain name with a decent PR3 ranking. I posted the site on the SitePoint marketplace, and a first bid came in for $50. We’ll see how things go as there are still about 14 days left in the auction.

I’m hoping that my new Carbon Fiber Gear project is worth a bit more over time
