I was particularly surprised and excited to see the headlines this morning:

Which led me to the official announcements on their respective blogs:

Andreessen Horowitz Blog – Andrew Chen

Update: I’m joining Andreessen Horowitz!

This is especially exciting for Abovo – we can now claim that a partner at top-tier/blue-chip VC firm Andreessen Horowitz is an ABOVO USER. :-O

I just subscribed Post@Abovo42.com to his Newsletter, so we should be seeing more posts from him soon.

This is all somewhat ironic to the extent that we often see natural search traffic from the search term “a16z Newsletter”: https://www.google.com/search?q=a16z+newsletter :-)

Best of luck, Andrew.

And BRAVO a16z – outstanding addition.
