The Georgetown Dish was not surprised when Fortune Magazine announced its 2014 list of the 40 most influential people under 40, and Uber's CEO Travis Kalanick tied with Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg for first place.

It was 2011 when Kalanick and Team Uber launched their on-demand private car service in DC.

Thanks Travis, for making uber our city's favorite verb!
