It was only this past December that local business guide Backyard launched, backed by a few big-name early-stage investors. Now, less than five months later, they're exiting and providing a nice, quick return for those investors.PixelFish, a creator of local video marketing solutions for businesses, has snapped up Backyard in a deal that is roughly half stock and half cash, we've learned. The deal is for between $3 to $5 million " and again, is a nice exit since the service had raised just $150,000 in seed money from 500 Startups, Jason Calacanis, and Eric Schmidt's Tomorrow Ventures.
