A couple of former Engadget bloggers have set up a site called GDGT, and it appears to be a great resource for gathering opinions on gadgets of all sorts.
Since several of you are gadget enthusiasts, I thought it would be good to point this site out to you.
I think it will be interesting to see how it develops. Will it become the key place people go to get opinions about gadgets, or will people just continue to Google and Bing and Yahoo for information, or use the Amazon ratings of a product to see what others think of a gadget? A lot depends on how well the community supports GDGT, with good and useful comments and data, and a lot depends on how good their ratings algorithms are. I know that Amazon’s algorithms are sound and have been thoroughly tested and improved based on years of use. So, GDGT faces tough competition.
Anyway, it’s a site you may want to add to your “periodically browse” list, or at least one to keep in mind the next time you are thinking of adding to your gadget collection.
