Google acquires my previous company, the Dealmap (formerly Fatdoor)

I'm happy to announce that Google purchased my previous company the Dealmap (a DBA of Center'd, Inc., renamed from Fatdoor, Inc.) this week.   Coincidentally, the announcement was publicly made on my 36th birthday, August 1, 2011. The Dealmap's parent company, Center'd, Inc. was started inside of my law firm Raj Abhyanker P.C. back in 2005 on a piece of paper approximately 6 years ago.   I was the co-founder, and CEO through the first two rounds of funding for the company.
