GDGT opens it’s doors and other random updates

So I haven't posted in a while.  Not because there hasn't been anything to post about, but because there has been too much.  With all the news that's come out lately, Palm Pre ~ Project Natal ~ iPhone 3GS ~ Bing.com ~ Google Wave, I've been inundated with keeping up on everything.  Plus, with news of this scale, there are much more qualified people (see my technology links on the side) who can write on these topics.  I prefer to write about either lesser known technologies, personal views, or ways to use existing technologies in a different way.  Just posting for the sake of posting is a waste of everyone's time.

Today, however, I visited the finally opened GDGT site which I must say was worth the wait.  The site looks great and I can see a lot of great uses for it.  For a quick review of the site, I'd suggest being lazy and watching the video they produced.  This is more than just an engadget or gizmodo blog remake, this site also allows you to link the gadgets you have, had, or want to your profile and follow the discussions on those gadgets.  It's still working out the bugs but I've traversed the site and have seen some good community feedback which will make the site better.  I've suggested one idea myself which would be to allow us to link our gadgets between each other to create relationships between the gadgets for use as a research tool (which headsets work with which phones, etc).  I'd also love to see a way to print out my 'have' list in case of an emergency.  Ya never know when you need to send a list off to your home or auto insurance carrier.  Ha!  Anyway, I'd suggest taking a look at the site.  I can see this idea they have used on other niche's as well.
