This one is a personal venture, but DeGeeked - Simple answers to tech questions. launched over the weekend. Still a work-in-progress (with much content development yet to be done), but we’re taking the launch-first-and-continually- improve approach.

Thx. Leslie, I’d guess you’d fall into our secondary audience segment, which would be those that get asked tech questions by non-technical family and friends. Now you have an easy go-to source of info to send to them. smile

Great site!  I’m subscribed and will be forwarding it to all my “non-geekified” friends.  They need this.

Thanks for all the kind words, y’all. Would love to hear what those “non-geekified” friends think. Anything they would like to see on the site, etc.

Also, for you “geekified” folks, you can also follow us on Twitter at http://twitter.com/degeeked

Great concept and design!  I’m wondering why you don’t have comments to sort of harness some collective wisdom?  Maybe because it’s not always so wise?  I tend to think that comments are really useful for stuff like this.

Comments (as well as some sort of ratings) are on the table and will likely be put in soon.
