Connecting about Wine
Connecting about wine has been really easy! Apparently lots of people like talking and learning about wine. I started my wine search on my “go to place”, Twitter. I sent out a quick tweet asking for suggestions of people to follow and got a quick response from a fellow teacher in the UK.
Then all it took was a quick look at @thirstforwine‘s Twitter stream and now I have a bunch of people I follow who are wine enthusiasts. The one with the best Twitter ID is @sipswooshspit. Love it! I created a list of the wine people I found and I follow what they are saying on Twitter in a column on Tweetdeck. So far I’m trying to build some relationships so I can better connect with them. I’m also hoping to find some people in France to follow. I speak French and French wine is AMAZING, so I’d love to find some wine enthusiasts in France.
I also joined a Ning about wine. I’m interested to connect with people in the Ning.
