TasteTV.com and BlogCritics.org Launch New Video Blog about Food and Wine

San Francisco (PRWEB) June 5, 2007 -- TasteTV and BlogCritics announce today the joint launch of a new video blog lineup called "Tastes." This announcement comes after a successful four month trial of the new "Tastes" culinary section on the BlogCritics.org site, which includes TasteTV food, wine, and lifestyle videos, as well as articles by acclaimed bloggers on the subject. The Tastes section has performed so well that it has now been opened up to online videos from other broadband video contributors, in addition to TasteTV.



Says TasteTV founder, A.K. Crump, "We felt that BlogCritics did a fantastic job of covering a wide variety of topics for its readers, and that by adding TasteTV's food, wine and lifestyle videos to a brand new section devoted to the topic of tastes, we could provide exciting and entertaining content that would merge the best of both worlds." He also adds that these kinds of strategic partnerships are key to growing Web 2.0 businesses, and are what online audiences, investors and advertisers want to see.

BlogCritics publisher Eric Olsen confirms that the Tastes section has been a big hit and is very popular among visitors to the site, which gets over 2.4 million in unique visitor traffic each month. According to Olsen, "TasteTV had a vision about how we could work together using internet television and create the Tastes site, and it has really paid off for both of us."
