We missed this one last week: Maya’s Mom, a Palo Alto-based social networking site for mothers, has launched, and has received some angel funding form high profile names, including Flickr co-founder Caterina Fake, Yahoo exec Jeff Ralston, Tickle founder James Currier, Presto’s Raymond Stern, Wink’s Michael Tanne, angel investor Jeff Clavier and True Ventures. As VentureBeat mentions, there is plenty of competition: Minti, Mommybuzz, MothersClick, and then other more general social networking sites.
The company describes itself as a cross between Yahoo Answers and Facebook. It is centered around the asking and answering of questions related to parenting.
