Experts make for great bibliography references and their schooled evaluations can be highly prized. But much of the time we are interested in hearing from the great cocoa masses (that’s a pun: cocoa mass is unadulterated ground cacao beans), or in this case, bloggers who have a different day job. The cool thing about this is that regular people have no agenda but pure enjoyment. You can evaluate their evaluations of Intrigue Chocolates by visiting their posts:

It was an occasion of making new connections, learning how to use the “new media” to promote our businesses, and sampling lots of incredibly good food. Folks were tweeting and twittering all over the place, but three attendees were impressed enough to blog about their reactions at:
