Momster
This is Bright Idea #5,321:
Modern momhood is so full of niche-moms. Used to be you were a mom, a working mom, a single mom. Period.
Now you're a mom who's working full time but pumping. You're the mom of a special needs child. You're a lesbian mom. An adoptive mom. The mom of multi-racial kids. A mom who's tandem nursing. A teenage mom. A 46-year-old first-time mom. A million different kinds of moms out there who don't necessarily have people in their immediate lives to support them.
Enter Momster.
In the manner of Friendster, Momster allows you to create a profile describing your own little corner of motherhood, and allows you to link to other moms.
Then when you need to track down another mom who is still nursing her four-year-old, or another mom who's cosleeping with triplets, or another mom who used to be a dad, or just trying to hook up with moms in your geographical area--you can.
I claim full credit, but I'd be willing to offer this idea to anyone who'd seriously like to implement it.

Count me in.

Not exactly a Momster, but I found this the other day: http://www.matchingmoms.org
