Medium is haulingย in big bucks.

The online publishing platform, headed by Twitter founder Ev Williams, raised another $50 million in investments Thursday, quickly following a $50 million round in September, bringing its total sum to $132 million.

Williams, in a Medium post announcing the news, didn’t specify how much the new investment valued his company.

The latest round was led by venture firm Spark Capital, which has links to Williams through the firm’s prior investments in Twitter.ย Andreessen Horowitz joined the latest round after it led the previous one in September, and GVย (formerly known as Google Ventures) contributed to the latest $50 million too.
