You register yourself as being knowledgeable in certain fields (e.g. Rails, Node, WebSockets, etc.) and then someone looking for advice in those fields requests a session with you. I was asked to do an hour's consulting about websockets last week. I did a session with a guy in SF using Google Hangouts. The whole thing went really well: I got a working prototype up during the session, the other guy was really happy and they promptly paid me the agreed rate via PayPal the next day. Their site's a bit beta at the moment, but that's improving all the time. It'll be interesting to see how that grows.
