    IMO Mailchimp has been past their "indie" style for years now. I'm surprised though on the acquisition. It seems like their play is going to be to create a suite of products for small businesses to utilize... maybe even to market it as a package of finance tracking, emailing, tax solutions, etc. as an all in one bundle.
