I met the two startup founders of Zenter, Wayne Crosby and Robby Walker, and blogged about how they wanted their online version of PowerPoint to get bought by Google. I listen to a lot of young entrepreneurs who desperately want to get bought by big companies like Google (GOOG), Microsoft or eBay, but Crosby and Walker actually made it a reality. On Tuesday, Zenter, an interactive presentation software, was acquired by Google for an undisclosed sum as mentioned in my colleague Erick Schonfeld's blog.

A little less than six months ago, Crosby left his pregnant wife at home in Phoenix and together with Walker, drove to Mountain View in an old Honda Civic to pursue the American dream. Crosby and Walker rented a small apartment, slept on air mattresses and began crunching out thousands of lines of codes day and night. So how did the pair, who met while working at Go Daddy, end up making a product (which, incidentally, was still in private beta) that Google had to snatch up? Here's a look at how Zenter did it.
