About Paul E. Zane

 

Paul became interested in the internet and its potential in 1997. Envisioning then a society that would rely on the internet to disseminate information, shop online, and communicate, Paul felt that he needed to be a part of it. He took a single class in Web Design in New Jersey and was instantly called. The next few years were spent learning as much as he could about the web, web pages, design and programming. In 1999, Paul started working in financial services for a small start up. From there he moved to a consulting company specialty in industrial analysis. At this company Paul was responsible for not only their various websites, but their computer infrastructure and databases as well. In February 2002, his career reached a new level as he moved on to a company that was creating commodities trading software for the petroleum and energy industries. Paul was responsible for maintaining their web servers as well as developing internal internet applications.

 

In 2003 Paul struck out on his own, working for various clients. Besides my own projects, Paul consulted for companies such as Citigroup, Accenture, and Roundarch. Paul has worked on some high-profile sites including the NFL, History Channel, Biography, and Smith Barney. In 2008, Paul joined an upcoming company specializing in social media, Ripple6. Ripple6 was purchased by Gannett later that year and Paul continued to work with Ripple6 on such sites as Mixing Bowl, for Better Homes and Gardens, Parents Magazine Community, Gannett's own Moms Like Me, and was responsible for developing Ripple's flagship product, R6 OnDemand.

 

As an internet expert, Paul continues to broaden the web with new and innovative websites.
