Web Jillion takes a look at the projects of several web designers, including Paul Scriven’s of 9rules

Paul Scrivens — Paul has a knack for quitting while he’s — sometimes — ahead.

9rules — Alive. Obviously a huge success and showing no major signs of slowing down.

Fine Fools — Dead. This smelled dead on arrival. Got to love the title of the last blog post.

Forever Geek, The Car Blog, CSS Vault — Alive. All with new owners. CSS Vault’s seen better days but the others seem to still be going.

SimpleyDone, WorkBoxers, Insert25, etc. — Dead. Lots of dead blogs in Paul’s wake.

OreoCeo, BusinessLogs — Alive. One’s a new blog — say a little prayer for it — and the other’s a design shop seemingly headed by Mike Rundle now.

Ironically, Paul written a post the same day over at Wisdump about letting things die – such as projects, etc.

David Krug, at Jack of All Blogs, says that he’s headed to join the Valleywag staff:

You may have noticed I’ve been selling off all my blogs, and well I have a huge announcement to make I figured this weekend would be a good one to make it also a good weekend to kick off some snark. I’m moving to Silicon Valley to work with Nick Douglas on Valleywag.
