lalawag Lives On; L.A. Tech Blog Acquired by Valley Girl

lalawag lives on after all: Less than one month after husband-and-wife team Sean Percival and Laurie Percival announced that the blog covering the Los Angeles tech scene was going on hiatus, the couple announced the acquisition of lalawag by The Valley Girl.

The Valley Girl media network is headed by actress Jesse Draper, daughter of Silicon Valley venture capitalist Tim Draper, TechCrunch reported, and Los Angeles-based Jesse Draper told TechCrunch the focus of lalawag would not change, adding that her goal is to create mini-media empire around covering startups, and that she and business partner Jonathan Polenz would launch a New York-focused site soon.
