I do know that Wine 2.0 was part of Web 2.0 and they did touch on topics like changing careers but not specifically about the wine trade, I think.<BR/><BR/>As far as the WBC, check out the list of break-out sessions, they might cover some of that topic:<BR/>http://www.winebloggersconference.org/breakout.pdf<BR/><BR/>Cheers & see you at WBC!Joe Robertshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12302860568125840279noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-836834983159060886.post-57569059989606624972008-09-28T18:26:00.000-05:002008-09-28T18:26:00.000-05:00A question for you, and definitely the same questi...A question for you, and definitely the same question for the Wine Blogger's Conference (which I will be attending - just 26 days away!)<BR/><BR/>I wonder if any workshops took place for those of us who love wine, are comfortable with tech and somehow, someway, want to find a new career in this combo of the two. My Night Thing is working sales in a supermarket wine department, and I know that's not the highest point on the Wine Food Chain. I am very grateful though, for this opportunity, but I am always thinking about how I can make my Night Thing my full time Day Thing. Maybe the Blogger's Conference will suggest some possibilities.Douglas Trapassohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18348522207945522495noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-836834983159060886.post-71895943951740475892008-09-26T02:37:00.000-05:002008-09-26T02:37:00.000-05:00thinks for share.http://www.makechinesefood.com - ...thinks for share.<BR/><BR/>http://www.makechinesefood.com - learning how to make <A HREF="http://www.makechinesefood.com/" REL="nofollow">chinese food</A>, <A HREF="http://www.makechinesefood.com/" REL="nofollow">Chinese Food Recipes</A>, <A HREF="http://www.makechinesefood.com/" REL="nofollow">Chinese cuisine</A>, low carb、 low fat、low calories and healthy <A HREF="http://www.makechinesefood.com/" REL="nofollow">Chinese food cooking recipes</A>.china dailyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11303982308561915223noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-836834983159060886.post-82696125553409154002008-09-25T10:26:00.000-05:002008-09-25T10:26:00.000-05:00Snooth isn't ready for prime time either.

Unfortunately, it grabs too much information, like minimum bids from auction websites, making it look like wines are available for huge discounts - when, in fact, they are not.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-836834983159060886.post-90905111642452568712008-09-24T20:41:00.000-05:002008-09-24T20:41:00.000-05:00It might take more bandwidth, but if we could find...It might take more bandwidth, but if we could find a way of delivering wine directly over the internet to everyone's PC, then we could take advantage of the real time Snooth interface. <BR/><BR/>Maybe I'll work on it.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-836834983159060886.post-61504736953067569682008-09-24T14:38:00.000-05:002008-09-24T14:38:00.000-05:00thanks, Smoke!The ext. cord mention was a bit tong...thanks, Smoke!<BR/><BR/>The ext. cord mention was a bit tongue-in-cheek ;-).<BR/><BR/>Wine 2.0 *the "movement"* is more the target of my commentary - if the tech doesn't exist yet, for example, then that's hardly the fault of your event.<BR/><BR/>I think Wine 2.0 *the event* is certainly on the right course, and I am looking forward to seeing how it evolves!Joe Robertshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12302860568125840279noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-836834983159060886.post-92052015601723412532008-09-24T13:46:00.000-05:002008-09-24T13:46:00.000-05:00Hey Wine Dude,glad you enjoyed the event!
