Wine, Food, and a Marketing Lesson
I’m a huge fan of Gary Vaynerchuk’s WineLibrary.TV podcast. The podcast’s goal is “Changing the Wine World” and it’s doing just that. He started the podcast as a way of plugging his store (Wine Library) and he’s turned into an A-list internet podcaster and marketer. I love Gary’s passion and energy for whatever he does. Weather it’s his wine or his beloved New York Jets he does everything at top speed. I like learning about the wine, but I love studying how he approaches his business.
I was watching the podcast on Saturday morning when Gary announced that they were having a huge sale at the store that afternoon. He also mentioned that they were filming a new episode during the event and that fans were welcome to stop by and watch. Perfect, I had company coming over for dinner, so I needed some wine and snacks.
I looked up the directions and headed out. I new it was somewhere in New Jersey, but it ended up being only 20 minutes from my house (586 Morris Avenue | Springfield, NJ 07081).

Who are the “Hottest Women in Tech?”
It used to be that the very few women that were into Tech were though of as, let’s just say “smart” looking. Not usually very pretty and certainly not “Sexy”. Recently, however, that seems to be changing in a big way. I have noticed a wave of really smart, interesting, funny, and yes SEXY women involved in tech. Not Vanna White-esque show girls or Vegas trade show “booth babes”, but real legit geeks who love tech and know their stuff. When you mix two things that I love; Technology and Sexy-Smart women, it’s no wonder that I’m logging so much computer time.
If you remember the Friends episode when Ross and
Rachel made their “Lists” of celebrities that they were allowed to hook up with. Well, here is my list of geek “exceptions” that I share with my wife.
Disclaimer: This is a commentary on how the world of tech has an influx of women who are both SMART and Sexy. It is meant to pay tribute to the beautiful and smart women of tech. I sincerely hope this is seen as a compliment, not sexist or misogonist. And hopefully a little fun too.
Criteria: Of course, I can’t start a list without qualifying the criteria for entry. All candidates have to REALLY be into Tech, not jus play the role of a geek chick in TV or Movies. They must be on Technology related show, or podcast or blog.
