Hi!
I've recently come into the idea of creating a site around the idea of recipes. The concept would be a bit StumbleUpon-esque, as I found that the problem with recipe sites for me is that there are so many recipes out there, but I don't know about them unless it's featured on the site or I know about a particular dish. I'm thinking of creating a site where like in a cookbook, you can just flip to another recipe which'll feature a picture and you can decide from there if it looks good enough that you want to make it. This cookbook would also be linked to your preferences in your account (ie. if you're vegetarian, you'll only be shown vegetarian dishes). Along with that, I thought I would try playing with social media, so you can have friends on this site and see what they're cooking, in case you want to try out what they made too.
I was wondering if you guys would share your opinion on if you would try out a site like this. And even if not, what are some features in a traditional recipe site that you don't particularly like/needs improvement. What are things you want to see on a more innovative approach of a recipe site?
I've only come up with this idea fairly recently, but I'd love to gauge interest to see if I should go forth.
Thanks for the help!
