WTN Services and the 2008 Wine Bloggers Conference
October 25th, I was not sure what to expect when I was asked to be a “panel expert” at the 2008 wine bloggers conference. I have to admit I blog but not as an expet by any means. To my delight the dialog was great. Participation in our conference was huge as the discussion evolved around Social Media and the many forms of evolving technologies. Luckily I was on a panel with brilliant bloggers so my insight was more of a layman and how we are expermenting with new media rather than a true pioneer. Luckly in the wine blogging world there is room for everyone.
What impressed me most about the event was the number of participants the quality of questions and the excitment in learning and growing new media.
While I am an old schooler just learning the nuances of the new technologies of blogging, twitter etc, I was thrilled to be able to participate and am thrilled to learn more in the future.

I was there, and it was energizing to have all those wine/tech/blog people in the room at the same time talking about this part of our industry moving forward. We’re a bit behind the rest of the tech world, but that’s ok; we get to learn from their successes and mistakes before we dive in. I’m pretty interested in finding the place where bloggers, wineries and consumers converge (both virtually and in person in the industry). I think there is tremendous value waiting for leadership to cultivate the opportunity.
