Food Blogging in France
Georges Rouzeau of Via Michelin magazine, on French food blogs: "95% of these new forums of expression are run, with passion and creativity, by women. A former rally driver, a bookseller, student, housewife, a former computer engineer, a student in Germany, they live in French Guyana, Canada, Portugal, Germany, Grenoble, Paris or Bordeaux. Many of them have travelled extensively. Some of them dream of making a living from cooking. All of them experience great joy in sharing and making exciting new contacts in the four corners of the world. Some have become friends in real life. The blogs with the greatest number of hits receive up to 100 e-mails a day, from requests for clarification about recipes to letters of congratulation. Véronique Chapacou, who ran Saveurs sucrées salées (which has closed down), or Mercotte, for example, are going to write their own cookery books for traditional publication."
Rouzeau links the following eight French blogs at the end of the article, but you'll have to parlez français to really read them: Café créole, C'est moi qui l'ai fait, Clea cuisine, Frais!, La cuisine de Mercotte, Papilles et pupilles, Papilles et pupilles for allergy sufferers, and Tasca da Elvira.
