Qunu is a community supported site that allows Linux users to get assistance from available online subject matter experts, depending on what type of help you need, and the software you need the help with. I’m currently without a Linux machine, but can see how a service like this could be invaluable. Incredibly, Qunu boasts 2770 experts signed up to assist other users, and as of the writing of this post, 14,946 help sessions donated. All this in only 143 days.

It seems that there are things that become possible in a community that buys in completely to free software philosophies, and it’s really admirable to see. I can only imagine how much more pleasant it would be to be able to actually explain my difficulty to someone who is an expert at what I’m trying to do, rather than figure out how to craft the ultimate Google query to find my obscure fix.
