An on-line forum where people come to ask and answer questions about Y2K. The questions and answers get sorted out into a reference library for everyone. An amazing idea. To find out more about it, click here. To participate in it, click here.
Here are two community preparedness listservs hosted by Oregon Public Networking in Eugene, Oregon. These lists discuss community preparedness issues resulting from potential century-date-change (CDC) complications impacting the nationally and internationally shared infrastructures of power, fuel, food, telecommunications, currency, and community services through several means. There has been quite a bit of traffic (30 messages/day in early June) on the unmoderated one. Try them both and see which serves your needs. They're free, of course.

The Global Ideas Bank is opening an online discussion group where people can discuss Y2K problems and mutual aid and other responses to it.
People can rate each other's contributions for their interest values. I would be interested to know if this works on your machine.
