I was approached by a startup that is today launching Drippler, a service that lets people get custom updates (think news, tips, support and more) about the gadgets they own and love, or want to own and love. I liked the idea at first, even if it sounded a whole lot like the original premise of gdgt (our launch coverage) before they - wait for it - pivoted.Drippler is basically a free website / mobile application that provides consumers with personalized updates about consumer electronics, ranging from smartphones to ereaders and gaming consoles. Their aim is to become a centralized hub for gadget lovers and cravers to find news, rumors, tips and tricks, tech support, apps, accessories and whatnot.
