Somehow I've ended up on Askville, over at Amazon. It's kind of fun - people ask questions, and you can answer them. The answers are rated (you can choose to post an answer in a discussion area instead, in which case it can't be rated), and you gain virtual gold coins and experience points for good answers. If you gain enough experience points you go up in level and gain new powers. Yup, they're using D&D-style mechanisms, although only in a general way.
You can also send or receive compliments. It's definitely an interesting place; a little bit like Advicenators, perhaps, except that it's run by Amazon instead of a lunatic. Plus in general the questions are far less juvenile. They cover a much wider variety of topics, too.
And of course the web design is far superior.
Here's my Askville profile. You can list all sorts of stuff in it; you can even add new categories (I added "Favorite Roleplaying Games").
