Harpers relaunches as TalkingDrinks.co.uk

The website for the wine and spirits industry Harpers.co.uk is relaunching with a new name and expanded coverage of the industry.
The Nexus Business Media title will be called TalkingDrinks.com from July 24 and will include a range of new interactive features, such as blogs and forums, a press release from the publisher said.
Breaking news will continue to lead the site, but the new features will build an online community for the industry, David Shrimpton, Nexus Business Media digital managing editor, said.
Future plans for the site will bring more photo and video content and a personalised MyTalkingDrinks section.
“We don’t do magazines online. We make great magazines, and great online business experiences,” Neil Thackray, Nexus’ chief executive, added.
