Where were you?
You can also watch events on Help.com as they happen
This would be another one of those great internet milestones
if it was done right.
Yea yahoo answers is on wiki so why not help.com too both are similar fundamentally.
That is what internet and wikipedia are for.
If take into account the amount of subjects and knowledge that would go into a “wiki of everything” you soon discover why.
So many people come to help.com for medical advice.
Why not have a button you press for medical help.
Then type in say “knee hurts” and medical help pops up
about sore knees.
It sounds complicated and I am sure it is but there are very
smart people out there.

Why not just using Google for special questions? You can EASILY find answers and advises for ANY medical question — and for nearly every other topic too.

I was thinking more one on one like help.com but with experts instead of amateurs.
e.g. you car makes a clicking sound when you drive it.
A mechanic could ask you questions and tell you what it might be.
