For the same reasons some people don't participate in TTL, there are going to be reasons people don't participate in mass tastings. The beauty is, the world is big enough for both (or all kinds as mentioned in this post). There are different strokes for different folks. <br /><br />The SauvBlanc and upcoming events work as a launch pad for wineries to get people INTO their tasting room AND to participate online. There is also some phenomenal data mining and analysis that can be done with the tweet archive. <br /><br />YES, it's chaos, but it's a celebration of wine that moves beyond the blogging community and into the real world wine consumer.<br /><br />Thanks for your insights Christian.<br /><br />Josh (@nectarwine on Twitter)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3602359347158233491.post-70503611420116015572010-03-08T22:12:01.209-05:002010-03-08T22:12:01.209-05:00Really interesting summary of some differing style...Really interesting summary of some differing styles of Twitter tastings. I agree with you about the recent SauvBlanc tasting. It was quite chaotic, with people tweeting all over the place, and limited real interaction taking place. This is exactly the kind of event that I think people will get burned out on. It seems like smoke than fire, with a long period of build up and then little pay-off at the end. I would be quite interested in participating in events more along the lines of the other styles that you mention.Ben Simonshttp://www.vinotology.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3602359347158233491.post-73919542357704157002010-03-05T04:54:40.802-05:002010-03-05T04:54:40.802-05:00I would like to participate in one of the next one...I would like to participate in one of the next ones...Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05044802847760788152noreply@blogger.com
