Quip purchased by Salesforce →

Bret Taylor and Kevin Gibbs:

If you’re not yet a customer, sign your team up today!

As their blog post also says that Quip is hiring, my gut says that it will survive in some form or another, but as part of Salesforce’s enterprise tools. I’m happy for these guys, but I’ll be pretty disappointed if I — as a regular human user — get shut out of this app.
