Today's Featured Company / Person - GDGT- Gadget lovers rejoice - this is a social site where you can obsess over those tiny bundles of tech joy among others just as geeky as you. GDGT (pronounced “g-d-g-t,” but I like to just say “gadget”) is a highly structured wiki that centers on tech gadgets. Anyone can edit any information on the site, but everything is structured which allows for lots of slicing and dicing of the data. The site includes intensely detailed specs on each product and groups products into logical categories. There are over a dozen categories and thousands of products in GDGT now, and users will quickly add more. All that structured data also allows for an incredibly useful Gadget finder tool as well.

GDGT also has a forum feature where users can discuss relevant gadget related topics.
