How To Use WLT

Wine Life Today (WLT) publishes user submitted stories. The flow is simple. You submit a story, it goes to the Newsroom and awaits others in the community to read it and vote or "Toast" your story. Get enough "Toasts" and your story makes the front page! Added bonus? If the story is on your own blog you get a whole slew of new readers whom you know are interested (they wouldn't be here if they weren't!).

WLT publishes what you submit. So visitors go directly to the submitted site (unless you choose to publish the article here in its entirety).

You can use the site anonymously to read news and subscribe to the RSS feed. But the fun comes in when you sign up. From that quick sign up you are part of the Wine Life Today community. Its fast and simple.

We've found a way to use a "Bookmarklet" to submit a story while you're surfing. If you at the top of the sidebar you'll find the bookmarklet

follow the instructions below to set it up, then just click on it to submit a page. You'll be directed to a page where you can enter in the description and Tags for the story and you're done! Story submitted!

Go to the ‘View’->’Toolbars’ menu and make sure the ‘Bookmarks Toolbar’ is ticked
Right-click on the "Bookmarklet" link in the Wine Life Today sidebar, and choose ‘Bookmark this link’.
Click the down arrow to see a complete list of folders, choose the ‘Bookmarks Toolbar Folder’ and click ‘OK’

Thats it!

When you're surfing another site and see a story that the wine community might be interested in just follow that link and add the description with tags and the story will go in!
