Have you ever visited TechCrunch before? The formal theme on the blog was like the newly created Comppress Theme. The TechCrunch theme is a unique theme which was designed basically by TechCrunch programmers and no traces of it were available on the internet but, with all this, there’s still someone who was able to create a stunning theme that looks the same like the TechCrunch wordpress theme.
Comppress Theme is a wordpress theme designed by CompTalks.com and the theme is a nice and one of the coolest design I’ve ever seen online. But now that TechCrunch is now under new management, they no more use that design again but the source code for it isn’t available online for hackers to tap from. But, upon searching for a techcrunch theme online today, I got a valuable information which I know will trill you in case you’re one those who loves the site and would like your blog to look alike.

This is a newly designed theme and does not have anything to do with tech crunch. One more point i would like to add here is. it takes too much time to load. Some more modification is required if you want to use this theme in your working web-site or blog. ( my checking tool is : tools.pingdom.com )
if you think i am wrong in anywhere, kindly correct me.
Hi Rakesh, your point is really helpful but overall the theme is great and it only depends on how the webmaster who is using it add contents to it that will affects it loading speed.
Nice theme, there is another one which is more like the TechCrunch site, here it is:
Hope this can help somebody.
