We heard about gdgt last year when Peter Rojas and Ryan Block announced it and have been looking forward to finding out exactly what it'll be. Now we know.

You can rate those gadgets and you can edit specs if you see a mistake. You can follow me at user.gdgt.com/Cali and see an introductory video by Veronica Belmont here.
