No slide when TC posted all those stolen Twitter documents? Or when they decided Apple coverage drove more traffic than their Web 2.0 roots? Those were turning points for me as a reader… who tunes in less these days.

It also came to my mind that they are more interested in what connections and relationships established by TC with another companies and blogs, rather than in the money techcrunch could raise for AOL.

[...] I was struck by this comment by Om Malik as he talked about the acquisition of the TechCrunch collection of blogs by AOL. Earlier this week, when he announced the acquisition, it dawned on me what a pivotal moment in the history of blog-based media entities it was. Five years ago, we were the upstarts, the outsiders and the crazies. Today, we are the media. Go figure! [Michael Arrington's Road to Millions] [...]

Very nice timeline. It’s interesting looking back at this now and seeing myself in that first TechCrunch meetup photo in Mike’s backyard. I brought the fire pit for the event.

I think the most pivotal moment for TechCrunch was in 2005 when I crashed at Mike’s place during the Web 2.0 conference. We both marveled that his RSS subscribers jumped from less than 3,000 to 7,500 over the course of the conference. That was THE moment that Mike realized that TechCrunch could be more than just a hobby.

A lot has happened since then to create value. GigaOM, could you be next?
