I love the swirl. sip. spit concept. At my last wine tasting event i had to have my husband com pick me up as i had tried about 7 different wines in an hour, and they were proportional sizes, and I am not a big women. I know at somepoint through out that night I was smoking a Cuban Cigar but I do now know where that came in, and I am not a smoker so it was that much more suprising. needless to say my husband had a good laugh at me.

Yes, of course. Just wanted to point out that #WBC09 can still be used in these tweets.

There are lots of tools for tweeting notes. Using #WBC09 will be the most important to show the power of the community!!

I commented on Luscious Lushes and Thea asked me to add it here as well.

New this year, or at least I think new, is a service dog amongst us. She is very cute and very sweet but she is doing a job. Please do not interact with her without asking first.
You might see her interacting with others. It is a long weekend and she will go “off the clock” for brief breaks. But she won’t do it until her handler is seated and safe and she hears the special command to do so.
Interacting with Ebony, service dog, when I am trying to get wine can have disastrous results such as me AND my precious wine on the floor!

I agree with one exception – the Live Wine Blogging event! We're going to get the Wireless LAN as beefy as possible so the lucky wineries that are pouring at the event ( eh-hem) can be see the wine tastings in near-realtime at #WBC09!

We're also cooking up a little extra something so that the information sorting is extra easy to review.

Speed-dating for wine producers version 2.0!
