Brad Feld RSS Feed: Gnip Raises Another Round

[RSS FEED-from consistent personal brands]

My RSS Feed, Brad Feld, is a Thinker and Has Just Posted the Following:

Today Gnip announced they have raised a $3.5m round that follows their seed financing .  We invested along with our friends at First Round Capital and SoftTech VC.

Gnip has made a ton of progress since we initially funded it at the beginning of the year.  I wrote about the initial financing when Gnip launched in July in my post Gnip is Ping Spelled Backwards.  Since they launched, the founders (Eric Marcoullier and Jud Valeski) have build a great technical and product oriented team, launched v2.0 of Gnip, have continued to make great progress on fleshing out the initial idea into a business, and have made some important decisions about their near term product roadmap.

Gnip is part of our Glue investment themeand is one of my favorite places to invest - in the "software infrastructure layer" of the Internet.  Other companies that we've invested before in this area include FeedBurner and Postini.  Here's hoping that Gnip can walk in their footsteps.
