Is TechCrunch the latest tech blog to put up a "For Sale" sign in the window? Well, not exactly, but word has it that the blog about all things 2.0 sat down for chats with AOL about a possible $20-30 million acquisition. Sources say TechCrunch founder and major shareholder Mike Arrington turned down the offer, but didn't walk away from talks, so keep your ears perked for news on a TechCrunch/AOL deal, or with others.

TechCrunch is a blog about Web 2.0 products & companies, many of the posts written by Michael Arrington. The blog's first post was on June 11, 2005. The website's Technorati rank is 2, and is their 3rd most favorited blog. As of April 18, 2008, it has over 765,000 web feed subscribers as measured by tracking company FeedBurner. It has revenue of US$200,000 monthly according to wikipedia.

    I wonder if TechCrunch manages to get more buyers other than AOL. That would put them in better position in asking for the $20-$30 mil price tag:

    $20-30m is not bad at all
