How about a site/page where people who have Ubuntu installed could go for help. This site/page would have volunteers logged in and waiting for folks needing help
This sounds pretty close to Ubuntuforums to me. I use this frequently to give support to others and also to get support for myself. I prefer Ubuntuforums more than IRC. I have found IRC to be very useful on times I have used it, but I find it pretty cryptic to get it all started correctly and I do not really understand what is connecting etc. Now if I feel intimidated by the IRC cryptic clunkiness, I am sure that real newcomers will be uncomfortable. Forums are seen a lot in Windows World, and have a familiarity.
I use teamviewer a lot to help remote friends (non commercial) and although I dislike the proprietary-ness of teamviewer it works well, and can be installed into a live session.
