In the spring of 2000, Lori Gottlieb was lured away from Stanford Medical School to become editor-in-chief of "Kibu.com", a high-profile Silicon Valley start-up dubbed in the make-it-up-as-you-go-along Internet Zeitgeist as anything from a "digital lifestyle brand" to "Yahoo! for Gen Y, with an estrogen slant."
