WTF? Why? What for? What are they planning to do with so much money?

  "Because we want to be better. We want to build the best products. We want to solve harder problems. We want to make life easier for more people. The experience and resources of Andreessen Horowitz can help us do that." I guess they didn't think they were able to build the best products without outside investors. goes without saying, I hope it doesn't change github for the worse; eventhough history has plenty of counter examples. good luck github.

    The minute they change my e-mail address to @github.com I'm setting the world on fire.

  Enterprise sales?

    That's been around for a while, actually. https://enterprise.github.com/ https://enterprise.github.com/

      Right, the enterprise product has been around. But the process to actually sell enterprise-level products to big companies usually involves long, high-touch sales cycles; as well as quite a bit of initial consulting. My guess is that's what Github will use their $100MM for.
