Ryan Opaz on Social Media Technology

This show was published Saturday, May 22, 2010

Overview

Ryan Opaz of Catavino is a prolific wine blogger. In this second interview with Ryan we explore social media technology. We discuss social networking sites that allow users to maintain their tasting notes online and share amongst a community. The two main sites are www.adegga.com and www.avin.cc and there are other sites such as www.cellartracker.com and www.vinfolio.com. We also find out about QR codes - a Japanese 2D code similar to a barcode - and how they might be useful in the wine world to provide consumers with more information about the wine they're drinking.
