How do you get the extent and center of your current view?

Question

I am trying to get the center point (lat, and long) of my current view.

I tried mymap.extent.getCenter(); but that doesnt seem to work.  Any ideas?

(because it demonstrates what you need to do, and just in case thats why you need the info :) )

If you want the lat/lng esri.geometry.webMercatorToGeographic(map.extent.getCenter());

http://developers.arcgis.com/en/javascript/jsapi/namespace_geometry.html#webmercatortogeographic
This is assuming your map is in web mercator.
