That is also <a href="http://divinecaroline.com/article/22303/26419?page_num=2&amp;url_components[]=career-and-money&amp;url_components[]=cars&amp;url_components[]=my_car"><strong>the title of one of the articles</strong></a> on <strong><a href="http://www.DivineCaroline.com">DivineCaroline.com</a></strong>.   Remember <a href="http://www.realgirlsmedia.com/"><strong>Real Girls Media (RGM)</strong></a>?  If not, you may remember the time when their pockets suddenly got a <a href="http://pulse2.com/2006/11/16/real-girls-media-network-gets-6-million/"><strong>little bit fatter</strong></a>.  RGM has recently launched DivineCaroline.com, a social network coined as being <em>For Women By Women</em>.</p>
<p>What is DivineCaroline about?  If Reader&#8217;s Digest was written about women interests, this would be it.  There is tons of content on Relationships, Parenting, Home &amp; Food, Body &amp; Soul, Travel, Style, Career &amp; Money, Play, and Neighborhood &amp; World on DivineCaroline.  All of those categories I mentioned also have subcategories as well. For example, under Pregnancy, the sub-categories are Labor &amp; Delivery, Hot topics, Belly Beautiful, Healthy Baby, and Healthy Mom.</p>
<p>On every article, users are encouraged to write non-offensive comments.  Users are even encouraged to write stories of their own which I think is also an awesome feature. Registration is simple and intuitive.  Here is what the form looks like:<br />

Once you create a profile, you are taken to your <em>studio</em> (mine is called Amit&#8217;s Studio).  Under My Studio, users are asked to write a little about themselves and your articles and reviews are consolidated on the frontpage.  There is also a page where users can manage their account settings by entering their location, change passwords, modify pen names, and subscribe or refuse subscription to the DivineCaroline Newsletter.</p>
<p>In the About Me page, users add 5 things that are on the to-do list, what the user&#8217;s favorite mistake is and if the user could donate $1 million to their charity of choice, then who would it go to.  There is also a favorite quotes section, most overused phrase, and to enter more optional information.  Another feature called My Publicist where you can e-mail your friends when you have an article published on DivineCaroline.</p>
<p>Kate Thorp is the CEO of Real Girls Media and has also been the founder Lot21.  Real Girls Media is based in San Francisco and is backed by 3i and <a href="http://www.waldenvc.com/"><strong>WaldenVC</strong></a>.  The name <em>Caroline</em> also belongs to the friend of one of the founders.  As long as there are passionate writers out there, DivineCaroline will continue to thrive.</p>
