I've been thinking about this too, since Dan Bassill sent his suggestion. I'm experimenting with a wiki for helping people with computer problems and I think it would go well there. The basic concept is at http://ComputerSelfHelp.org. I was thinking in terms of instructions and tips, but hardware and software evaluations would be a great addition! I'd like to work on the organization of the site more before letting others add and edit content. Last year we set up ordered groups and categories of computer problems with plans to use them with TechLinkUp.org. I might be able to use pieces of that taxonomy to start something in ComputerSelfHelp.org. Let me make a first pass at this. Then you all can rework it on the PmWiki. And then I'll move it to use MediaWiki (I think). PmWiki was very easy for me to install and it's good for getting started, but MediaWiki has more features and would probably be better for a large project. www.wikipedia.org uses MediaWiki.
