Signpost, a New York City-based community-powered deal site has announced that is has received an undisclosed capital funding round from Google Ventures.

The company, which had raised initial funding from Spark Capital and business angels, has launched a new site and is in the process of expanding in Boston, Chicago, and San Francisco.

Signpost is designed to help people find, share, curate, and rate deals that matter to them at a local level, from a gift card to a free three hour open bar, as well as merchants engage local customers.

Signpost connects locals with deals that actually matter to them making it easier (and free!) for anyone to post, rate and discover great deals: everything from the weekend-only sample sale and the too-good-to-be-true happy hour, to those hidden finds you only hear about when you're in-the-know. Locals vote up the deals they like and personalize their experience around friends and tastes. No games, check-ins or maniacal email scouring required.
