Edsurge has many components, though the most useful resource they provide for the classroom teacher is their EdSurge Wiki. You could literally spend hours finding resources to help you no matter your grade level/content area. Use their search tool to help you find items that will make your teaching more enjoyable and efficient. You will see some usual suspects (Learnzillion, Brainpop, etc.), but you will also find items you would not normally find. For instance, I am interested in trying out Drop Some Knowledge (DSK)...a study tool that students allows students to play games against their friends from their smart devices.
I highly recommend you sign up for their weekly newsletter where they provide new edtech resources. Besides providing different edtech website recommendations, EdSurge also provides edtech job postings--though these postings are geared towards computer programming jobs rather than classroom teacher positions. You can also find a variety of deadlines for different grants and other edtech opportunities, though I do not have much experience with these items.
