TechCrunch en francais: What's the business plan?

Hi Stephen

Thanks for the note. You might know this French expression "Quand on aime on ne compte pas" "When you like just don't count". TechCrunch is a hobby and passion just as blogging.

I do it because it is fun and because i just love this blog and believe it should be brought and adapted to a french speaking audience. Note also that it is not only a translation as i will write also my own posts there as will some guests stars like Jeff Clavier every now and then.

Business Plan is not an appropriate word here i guess. TechCrunch France is not a startup. TechCrunch is just a blog resulting of personnal initiative taken on my private time. If on my side one day i will make some money out of it (which will make happy) then i will be happy to share that with you.

What return on investment? First a note from you in Business week less than 24 hours after release of TechCrunch in French :)Probably getting a better network in the industry. But i am not even sure i could say that was my first motivation.

Finally adapting TechCrunch is not taking me so long.

Hi Stephen,

I think we are mostly just passionate about what we do and want to do more of it. No business model except the hope to expand our reader base.
