I was at WITS yesterday where I ran into Gary Vaynerchuk, yet again. He came onto my radar screen in Atlanta when I was working at Murphy's. My friend Ryan is a BIG fan. Now that I am back in the wine fold on this coast it seems like I see him all the time. Duh, technology and wine (which is the pack I run with now) is the pack he leads. Well, today as a keynote speaker, Gary really brought it. I hope he knocked some of those staid, status quo, we-like-things-the-way-they-are wine industry folks on their asses. Either get on the bandwagon or stay out of our way.
I think my favorite quote of the day, Gary, was. "Wine is broken and technology is gonna fix it." Figure it out for yourself.
Check Gary out at Winelibrarytv. If you think that Gary is a bit much at first - hang in there - he really grows on you. I, frankly, love his enthusiasm and the fact that he is so damn honest. I can't help but like him for that.


Hey, this is your writing partner. Gary is great, but he really, really needs to be using Revver(www.revver.com) to post his stuff.
