What will soon be the only wine to serve to the tech savvy at San Fran dinner parties? Twitter wine!
As part of a charity initiative the micro-blogging site has revealed it is to team up with Crushpad and Fledgling Wine to raise money for Room to Read, an organisation that helps to educate kids in "resource deprived" regions.
The wine - both a pinot noir and a chardonnay - will be sold for $20 a bottle, with $5 per bottle sold going to the charity, and will be served at various Tweetups.
Hit play on the video above to see Twitter co-founder Biz Stone, and others involved in the scheme, give you the low-down on the new plans.
