-	Web-based support for BOINC - FAQs, message boards, web pages - is ineffective for many people. Inevitably, we write in a technical language that not everyone understands. By providing one-on-one, real-time interactive support, preferably by voice, we can assess the knowledge and experience of an individual user, we can give advice at the right level and in the right language, and we can make their experience with BOINC successful and enjoyable. In this way we can start to reach the remaining 99.9% of the world's computer users, and take volunteer computing (and scientific research) to a new level.	+	Web-based support for BOINC - FAQs, [http://boinc.berkeley.edu/dev/ message boards], web pages - is ineffective for many people.
