I noticed a few weeks ago that Marc Andreessen had deleted virtually everything off his blog. The only thing that's left is the post announcing the formation of his VC firm, Andreessen Horowitz.

I've been such a huge fan of Marc's writing, and hated to see so many brilliant and incredibly helpful posts lost. So I went to the Internet Wayback Machine and copy/pasted all the posts they had (through March 2008). I had also subscribed to Marc's blog via Feedburner e-mail, so grabbed all of the e-mails I had saved to fill in the gaps.

To be clear, I have no ulterior motives other than making sure that Marc's posts can be found and useful to entrepreneurs everywhere. (And if Marc wants me to take it down, I would reluctantly do so... hopefully he won't!)

Some quick cautions and warnings!

• The link addresses aren't changed, which mean they're prefaced by the Internet Wayback Machine archive link. If you look at the link you'll figure out which part to delete to go to the right address.
• Some videos have been taken down, or I couldn't find the embed code.
• I tried to include every post he made and not filter anything. However, I may have missed a few. Please let me know (via comment below) if you have any that aren't in the archive.

I hope this is useful to some of you out there. And Marc, if you read this, I'm a big fan and only mean for this to help the millions of entrepreneurs you've inspired.
