Andreessen Horowitz has just invested $80 million in Twitter by the way of secondary markets. The news, reported by All Things D, is a surprising development considering that Twitter just closed a $200 million round of funding in December led by the senior firm Kleiner Perkins Caufield & Byers, and Andreessen Horowitz did not participate in the round.
