Two of my fave online haunts made headlines this week. Medium, the buzzy publishing platform founded by Twitter co-founder and “platisher” Evan Williams, announced that it had scored $57 million in Series A funding from some pretty influential VCs including Google Ventures, Andreessen Horowitz, Greylock Partners and Williams’ own Obvious Ventures. Writing on the platform, Medium’s operations chief Andy Doyle noted:

“This investment strengthens Medium for the foreseeable future and allows us to continue, heads down, running hard to fully realize our vision.”
