Apparently I missed the news in June that Google has acquired Zenter. I was curious what will happen to Zenter when Google announced that they will release a web based presentation software back in April. I'm glad things worked out for Zenter. I know the amount wasn't disclosed but are there any rumors about what the amount might have been?

I'll take a guess, just for fun.... maybe 5 to 10 million, since they were acquired 6 months in and without a public version-1 out

There are pretty good competitors in that field, My startup is one of those :P. I will post a link in a couple of days to have some feedback from Y-Combinator readers.

Good luck. Zenter was pretty damned slick last time I saw it. With Googlebucks behind it, you've got an uphill battle ahead of you.
