Nothing like buzz over a Yahoo! social network focused on careers to remind you that, even on the day you close some money for angel financing, you have exactly zero seconds in the life of a startup to sit back and relax.

I will absolutely be writing lots about KickStart, but for now, we're focused on building Path 101, not competitor watching.

I have to be honest, though, I thought it was going to be a little bit more of a competitor.  Yahoo! seems bent on getting attention away from Facebook and LinkedIn, rather than trying to work with them, and we're happy to let them play that game.  A social network around jobs is the last thing we want to be.

That being said, if anyone wants to be my KickStart friend, I'm here.  In case you're on mobile RSS, and can't see the link, just remember, the web address is:

Got it?
