Cookbook Voyeurism!! Install the EYB Widget

Have you ever clicked on another member’s username to see the list of books they own?  It’s the next best thing to standing in front of their bookcase.  Now we’ve made it easier for you to browse 1,000s of other members’ Bookshelves, and compare them with your own collection.  We’ve made several improvements to the profile page and will continue to enhance it:

• It’s easier to see your own! Just click on your username in the top right hand corner and select Profile.  You will see what other members see when they click on your username. If you want to edit your Profile, just click on the Edit link. 
• You can now add a link from your profile to your own blog or website.  A great way to drive traffic to your site is to post on the forum and write recipe and book notes.  If they’re interesting they’ll want to read more.
• If you have a website, you can now show your followers your cookbook collection by posting an icon on your site that links directly to your EYB Bookshelf. Check our How to section for details.

Your profile is where you can tell other EYB members about yourself – it’s interesting when reading Notes to learn more about the writer.  A Note that says “the family loved it” has more meaning if you know that “the family” are toddlers or teenage boys.  Do also consider adding in your city, as we will be using this in future to advise about events in your area.
