Well, after a few long days in the office, here’s an appropriate social network that I could use a glass of right now… Vinorati. This dandy grape filled website is a quencher for the serious wine connoisseur. Join a tasting group, share your favorites, and your tasting notes. Wines are listed and voted on and ranked by price, much like you can expect on any site where there’s a star voting system involved. The user experience is straight and to the point, and there is a reward for being active… that’s right! You get fancy titles, like “senior member”… Sounds prestigious.
So, who could use this site?
- The obvious, Wine affectionado
- The future wine lover
- or… the guy like me, the person who knows little of wine, but has a dinner date wherein wine will most definitely be on the menu and he doesn’t want to look like a complete idiot.
Feature List:
- Add new wine!
- Rating
- Price ranking
- Browse wines by regions
- Add/organize favorites
- Comments, Recommendations
- TAG CLOUDS! - We love tag clouds
- RSS Goodness
- … among other things
I don’t think that your level of wine knowledge is pertinent to partaking in this classy little nook in the web, but - you do have to at least have a curiosity for wine, and the drive to learn more or teach someone about it.
Cheers.
