There’s a New Social Network in Town: ButtersBook… This Time it’s all about Food & Drink
Posted By Butters Fine Food & Wine on May 2, 2011
ButtersBook.com entered the Social Network scene 2 week ago, but this time it’s all about Food and Drink. The creator says that it was time for a new social network, one that is dedicated to just that.
ButtersBook is designed to be simple, but flexible enough to allow users to discuss and share all they love and know about food and drink. The cost is free, like most social networks. Users can upload their own profile picture and there is a special email address assigned to each user so that a photo of a dish, a beer, wine, cocktail, dessert, etc. can be emailed to your account. Users can then rank the food or drink, say if they “liked” it, allow others to do the same, and then discuss the food or drink item.
Users are allowed to “friend” each other, as seen on other sites too.
There are even login abilities using your existing Facebook, Twitter, Yahoo, or Google accounts after establishing a ButtersBook account, as long as the email address that you use at ButtersBook matches the email at Facebook, Twitter, Yahoo, or Google.
Updates are happening everyday and there are plans for a mobile device platform. The site is already functional on the Ipad. ButtersBook has also registered a Facebook account (www.facebook.com/buttersbook) and a Twitter account (www.twitter.com/buttersbook) in hopes of finding social networking foodies that would like a social networking site that is dedicated to just food and drink.
Foodies, food lovers, food critics, food writers, food bloggers, restaurants, bars, chefs, brew masters, wine makers, bakers, and anyone or any business in the food and drink industries are encouraged to join as either individuals or as a business.
Several well known chefs, restaurants, and food writers have already joined, as well as the Los Angeles based film company known as Generation Awesome, under their short skit series called ‘The Bartender Hates You”.
A link to join the has been provided below.
See you at the ‘Book!
