"We're not doing this because of the wave of layoffs," pleads ReadWriteWeb editor Marshall Kirkpatrick, announcing a new site-within-a-site called Jobwire at his also-ran business blog. It's true, Jobwire has been in the works for some time. But Kirkpatrick, who chronicles tech startup trends for a living, forgot to lay off a token employee last week. Now everyone thinks wrong: Either they believe Jobwire missed its launch window ("on schedule for next week," Kirkpatrick tweeted 12 days ago), or worse, they presume this is a hastily-assembled attempt to cash in on the sudden glut of unemployed Web workers. Poor guy. I'll probably end up working for him.
