Jyve is a service where users can ask and answer questions from real people in a number of different ways. You can simply type in your questions and wait for someone to answer it or you can browse through users profiles and tag clouds until you find someone with the expertise you desire. You can communicate via Skype or the IM client of your choice. If you download the Jyve Notifier you’ll know exactly when someone has asked a question you’re qualified to answer and you can seek help from Jyve experts. Here’s my screencast tour of Jyve:
