Qunu SupportNow here is an idea whose time has come. One of the arguments that I have always hears against open source applications is that there is no support available for them. This has been solved for some open source applications where you can purchase professional support for their applications but this still leaves out out in the cold if you are using some unsupported applications. There are always forums but it can be hit or miss.

That is, until now.

In comes Qunu. Qunu allows you to connect with users via Jabber-enabled IM clients. The way it works, you go to the Qunu website and search for a topic. You will then be shown a list of people who are available to help with your problem. You can select one of these people to chat with and they will try to help you with your problem.

This feels very much like many other help websites except this connects you in real time rather than relying on e-mail or forums. A very cool idea!
