Paul 'Scrivs' Scrivens is under construction.

Hello there. My name is Paul Scrivens, but some people call me Scrivs. I'm a digital inventor. I like to think of things and then build them out. Usually these ideas focus around helping others. I have been doing this since 1998.

I created the first independent blog network on the web, 9rules (sold in 2009), the first company designed to help companies with their social media communications at Business Logs (sold in 2007), served as a Senior Editor for the now defunct Digital Web Magazine and Publisher of SplashPress Media, and also was the Community Coordinator and Product Designer at (mt) Media Temple. Currently, I'm the Senior Product Manager at MOpro.com.

I have also been blogging since 2002, mostly about design, but I also like to talk about business, marketing and life in general. I wrote a chapter for the Smashing Book #2 which was so awesome they made it a separate insert. Every once in a while I do some public speaking.

Like to learn more about me and see what I'm up to online? These are the sites I run:

I also occassionally write for Smashing Magazine.
