Hi, I love this. I bookmarked it and plan to use this often.

Possible additions:

- Something that users of the service could add commands to and the community could up vote for grading on technical difficulty.

- Also a "shell command of the day" type of mailer service would be amazing :)

View on HN

I can scan the access logs for the top explained commands, and show those on the home page (although that will probably only further increase their popularity ;).

Weight them by a power of their age or something like that.

You can also count how often they are requested from the links on the home page. Granted, the additional popularity will probably cause people to share those more often.
