Until now.

RoleModel.TV is a subscription based television channel for families. It is made up of two distinct, yet interconnected, services: The Library (offering how-to, informational, and educational downloads) and Service Programming for Families (linear, digital television with scheduled interactive programming for families).

Path 101
Path 101 is "Pre-Monster.com". When you go to these big job sites, the first thing they ask you is what you want to do. A lot of people don't know the answer to that... college students, people in career transition, moms returning to the workforce, laid off at 50, etc... We want to build a destination for career discovery and development and we're starting by building a kind of last.fm for resumes. We want to show people what other people did with your major, what others did after they had the job you did,or what people did before getting the job you really want to get... skills you're missing, etc. Then we're going to layer on ways for people to get advice, take career tests, keep a career journal--all done in community-powered ways from peers and others of similar interests.
