Wine Tastings Go Mobile

New Service Lets Consumers Find Wine Tastings And More While On The Go

Malvern, PA (PRWEB) February 10, 2007 -- LocalWineEvents.com, the world's leading food and wine events calendar, has launched a new mobile product to help on-the-go consumers find wine tastings and other food and drink events around the world. The new mobile service expands the reach of LocalWineEvents.com, a free, post-it-yourself calendar created as an online aid for businesses hosting food, wine, beer and spirits events, large and small.

LocalWineEvents.com content has been re-formatted for those who depend on their cell phones and PDAs to retrieve Web-based information. The improvement eliminates the trap of endless scrolling often faced by mobile device users.

LocalWineEvents.com benefits event organizers around the world - including businesses, organizations and fundraising groups - by giving them an entire webpage of their own, free, to publicize their food and drink events. Consumers seeking such information also benefit by finding what they want in one place.

Until now, that place was only on the Web. But the addition of improved mobile access means LocalWineEvents.com can deliver its content in an attractive, easy to read platform. Information about wine tastings and other food and drink events around the globe is now available anytime, anywhere.

Eric V. Orange, the founder and developer of LocalWineEvents.com, calls the expansion into mobile a logical next step for his Web-based creation. "With the mobile industry growing, it only seemed natural to give our consumers instant access to our listings," Orange said. "The site is always up-to-date. You will find details on gourmet culinary tours, cooking lessons and demonstrations, charity wine auctions and dinners, wine appreciation classes, wine dinners and wine tasting courses, official sommelier schedules, wine festivals and more."

Launched in 2000, LocalWineEvents.com is the only website where wine enthusiasts, foodies, and lovers of the good life can find listings of upcoming food and drink events all over the world. As of early February 2007, more than 91,000 events had appeared on the LocalWineEvents.com calendar. Those listings - posted free by retailers, wineries, restaurants and others - reach more than 650,000 unique visitors a month.

LocalWineEvents.com has received accolades from food and beverage industry professionals, from trade publications, and from mainstream publications including Time Magazine, The New York Times, U.S. News & World Report and The Wall Street Journal.
