An interesting article by Sarah Dickerman on Slate.com as to whether the iPhone could take over from the cookbook in the kitchen. She concludes not, though does see the advantage of a digital shopping list on your phone. We are intending to add an iPhone app, as well as apps for other smartphones, in the not too distant future. You will then… read more
Tasting Table picks EYB as Handiest Website
January 30, 2010 by Jane
Eat Your Books is the Handiest Website of the Month according to Tasting Table. Very cool! And today we have a write-up in The Irish Times which has resulted in a large number of new Irish members. Welcome to you all but I would warn you that initially the site is aimed at the USA so we don't have a lot of British… read more
EYB on TV
January 20, 2010 by Jane
For those of you in the Boston area, I will be demoing EYB on WBZ-TV tomorrow for the Consumer Reports feature on the 5pm news. We will put up a link on the Press page when we get it. After today it could be broadcast on any CBS affiliate around the USA. I feel more nervous now waiting to see it than… read more

Faster searching coming soon
January 18, 2010 by Jane
The huge recent increase in EYB members is wonderful but we have found that searches have slowed down and in some cases been hanging with no results. This is obviously not a good situation for a recipe search engine, so some major re-coding is going on and a new version of the site will go up next week that will… read more

200,000 recipes now indexed!
January 11, 2010 by Jane
With the latest indexed books added to EYB, we now have more than 200,000 recipes indexed. Although obviously we don't carry the actual recipes, this is quite impressive when you consider we only launched a few months ago. Epicurious.com which launched 14 years ago, has 142,000 recipes, and AllRecipes, which started up 12 years ago, has 40,000 recipes. We are… read more
More publicity for EYB
January 7, 2010 by Jane
And the publicity keeps coming which is fantastic. The first couple of months after we launched was difficult as we felt like we were almost invisible but now we can't keep up with all the great PR we are getting. We are in the process of putting up a press page so you can see everything. Publishers Weekly had a wonderful… read more
Soup Books
January 6, 2010 by Susie
Let me make it clear: I'm not well suited to living in New England. I take after my mom, who grew up in a subtropical part of China - I flinch when the frost comes creeping up the windows. While my daughter runs around the house barefoot in a tutu and my son fetches the wood in a T-shirt (no… read more
