TechCrunch has become the latest blog network to go mainstream. The blog has finalized a syndication deal with WashingtonPost.com, and TechCrunch stories are already appearing on the Post's technology section.The Washington Post, which already runs stories from paidContent.org and mocoNews.net, is the first mainstream source to sign a deal with TechCrunch.
It's an equally beneficial partnership; in the words of MediaGuardian's Jemima Kiss: "TechCrunch wants to reach a more mainstream audience, and WashingtonPost gets niche coverage from an authoritative source."
