Google went shopping recently and added Labpixies to its repertoire of acquired properties. For those
unfamiliar with the small start-up out of Israel, Labpixies is a development company that has produced
a plethora of casual games and applications/gadgets for Facebook, Android, the iPhone OS, and more.
Labpixies was also one of the first development teams to jump on board with the iGoogle platform.
Acquisition details were not revealed, but Labpixies says it doesn’t expect its new-found success will
change how it goes about brining additional applications and games to Google’s multiple platforms
