I2C Thoughts...

...from the newbie... Can each digital port send I2C? Because I saw some I2C servo controllers that handle multiple servos. Could this expand the number of servos (or H-bridges) controlled?

For example there used to be a nice area where you could find comparable and supported devices and how to hook them up.

Be a shame that it remains in this state because there is a great potential. Thanks.
