Web 2.0 social networking site launched for wine tasting trips to the Willamette Valley

March 18, 2009 - PRLog -- Willamette Valley, Oregon.  WillametteWineTalk.com today announced a successful launch receiving over 1,500 page views in the opening weekend.  Willamettewinetalk.com will quickly be the primary web site visitors will use when planning their day of wine tasting in the Willamette Valley.  After they have arrived at their wineries of choice using the interactive map feature, users can review their experiences at the tasting rooms, as well as discuss various wine topics using the WineTalk discussion forums. The web site is available on mobile devices as well.

There are many wine web sites covering the Willamette Valley, but www.willamettewinetalk.com is the first to allow this level of user interaction.  In classic web 2.0 form, the most compelling content will come from the users themselves, as they contribute and talk about their experiences visiting wineries. To facilitate their wine tasting experience, there is also a glossary of wine terms included on the site.

Other features of the site include an interactive map that utilizes a cutting-edge application of Google Maps technology.  Users can easily get directions from any winery to any other winery simply by using the drop down menu choices located at the bottom of the interactive map page.  On each page of the site is a live weather feed, with icons showing the weather forecast for the Willamette Valley.
