Vinismo: Wiki + Wine
Well, it’s been crappy month for my blog — not a single post since last month. It’s been a hectic July with lots of family activity, and I’ve been offline more than is the norm. Luckily, I finally have something cool enough to get me out of this slump behavior…
Today my friends Evan and Maj Prodromou are celebrating the fourth anniversary of Wikitravel, the free online worldwide travel guide they founded and shepherded into one of the premier travel resources on the Internet. It recently won the Webby Award for Best Travel Site. Beaujolais to them!
Evan, along with Nicolas Ritoux (a real Frenchman), is also today launching his latest undertaking, Vinismo, an equally ambitious Open Content wiki project, aiming to be a complete guide to the world of wine for oenophiles of all levels of wine expertise and experience. Beaujolais to that!
I never could participate as much as I would have liked to in Wikitravel, considering I just don’t travel much (not for lack of want). However, I do make it out to the wine store pretty often, so I’m looking forward to belonging to this new community of wineaus.
