    Jeff, you are right.
    WLTV is a great site which I come to regularly however a comments section and a forum don’t make a site Web 2.0.

    One of my favourite Web 2.0 sites has the definition of “Web 2.0″: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Web_2.0

    Great energy and good review of a wine you don’t have. Just wondering where one gets a NY Jets spit bucket?

    Hey gordoyflaca,
    The Wine Spectator videos generall have substantially higher production value than WLTV. Not saying I don’t love Gary, I do, and I watch every day and submit an intro when I can… However, without altering the format, WLTV would benefit tremendously from some basic 3-point soft lighting and better audio. Better audio could be achieved by either using lav mics or flying a shotgun over Gary just out of frame. Would make a *HUGE* difference. Oh, some sound dampening material in the room would help too.

    What makes your website 2.0…. I don’t think you have any elements that would qualify you.

    Pale rider of The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly asks of Gary: What ever happened to the avatars? Interesting and fun episode Gary. WOOOOOT there it is. QOTD: WLTV of course. But the Human Clock site is on your heels. Cheers, CKatalyst

    Hey GV,

    I have been a wine.woot fan since its inception. I have bought around 7-8 different offerings from woot. Some of them have been absolute gems and some have been clunkers. I will give the monkey a try when it is offered next Monday.

    WLTV is still my favorite though………… :o)

    I’ve been lurking for a while - or just working too much - my first comment in probably several weeks SORRY. Anyway, loved your energy on the show today. This is the Gary that turned us all into VANIACS!!! QOD: #1 WLTV!!! #2 IDEAS IN FOOD…

    Just because I don’t post doesn’t mean I don’t love this site and I try to visit at least every two days to catch up…..

    BTW, what’s the daily countdown on your dry-erase board? I’ve noticed several comments about it and a lot of us are curious. Besides Jets pre-season, what could be happening in mid-August?

    I’m not very computer-literate (I hate these things) so I don’t know what a Web 2.0 website is as opposed to a regular old website. So, I guess I’ll vote for you. Or the Fat Wreck records website.

    Yours is the only one I visit daily, so I guess that counts for something. Well, I don’t visit if I’m out of town because I don’t bring a computer along with me while travelling and I will never, ever bother to use a computer in a hotel lobby–unless I’m lost or something.

    OK…Jets better beat the Pack, see you later,
    GO BEARS!!!

    Drowned smurfs and cork tossing: is this indicative of too many wine tastings today? Sometimes credibility suffers when dignity declines. Energy is best when it appears to be in control.

    I love Web 2.0, because I can say things like this.

    That is a big glass. Perhaps, if you get one a tad bigger you could fit your whole head in it. Imagine having your head surrounded in wine aromas. Dream of it. You know you want it.

    All in good fun, Gary, keep it up.

    wine.woot.com is hit or miss with New Jersey shipping. I wouldn’t be surprised to see NJ omitted from the ’states shipped to’ list…if it’s on there it’ll be followed by ‘expect tediously long delivery times’

    QOTD - i like wikipedia.org. That’s where I had to go to find out what web 2.0 was. I find myself on that site all the time just checkin’ out random stuff.

    QOTD: WLTV without a doubt.

    WLTV, of course! No brainer.
    Thanks for the WOOT introduction. I will definitely check it out. $5.00 flat rate shipping??
    Good,bad and ugly. Great movie theme. That could be used to describe the forum posts, eh?
