I won’t repeat too much of this TechCrunch post announcing that Paul Carr is to join the TechCrunch team. Suffice it to say that when I heard Paul’s popular column, NSFW, had been cut by The Guardian newspaper I lobbied to bring him over to TechCrunch and TechCrunch Europe. It didn’t take much lobbying.

So from this Saturday afternoon Paul will be filing his weekly NSFW column, which will be ‘cross-posted’ from TechCrunch.com over to TechCrunch Europe. Paul will also be filing occasional extra posts from Silicon Valley as “our man” on the spot. I look forward to his coverage. Hang on to your hats.

    Excellent news. I particularly like his Crunchbase profile.

    Well done TC! The Guardian’s loss!

    Unbelievable that the Guardian let Paul go, though a recent article he wrote did give me some concern that things weren’t going his way at the guardian. A particularly loose tongue opposed to the Guardians way of thinking on a certain legal case if I remember rightly.

    Think I might have to do the BlogVocalizer treatment on his first TechCrunch article.

    Paul and Milo too – what a team, this is so exciting!
