Today was a big day for us here at Scribnia. Ownership has transferred from Russ and I (the original founders) to Marc Duquette of Tribu Virtual Inc. We’ve been in touch with Marc over the past few weeks and he seems like a great guy. We’re confident Scribnia will continue to grow and thrive under his ownership.
Working on this site has been a formative experience. It’s fun to watch so many people spend time in a community that we built from the ground up. I’ve been playing around with coding web apps for years, but Scribnia was the first web business that I attacked full-time and full-force. Little sad to see it go, but we won’t be gone completely–we no longer own the site, but we will still be active users in the community.
Thanks to everyone who has helped make Scribnia a success. If you get a chance, check out the new web app we’re working on, called SeatGeek. The landing page is here, and you can follow us on Twitter here.

Scrinia is a blogging community built around online authors. Anyone whose work is available online, from small-time bloggers to New York Times columnists, is fair game. There are countless writers available online, yet till now there has been no organized way to learn about their biases, background, and abilities. Scribnia enables readers like yourself to rate writers that they love and those you cannot stand. So go ahead: rave about your favorite author and blast writers you find biased, unreliable, or just plain dull.
