Baked. Search Deja.com (soon to be renamed, as it has been bought by google) for the recipe you want. Narrow your search to the rec.food.recipes newsgroup. |

While there doesn't seem to be a peer-to-peer recipe
swapping network there are some very good archives of
recipes to which you can submit your own.
Trouble could arise if cookbook publishers find out that
people are typing up recipes from their books and sharing
them for free. Forget about MP3, the next big legal
battle could well be fought over .TXT |

But the people who say "I'm not charging money, so it doesn't count" would sound properly stupid. |

What a novel idea - Napster for recipes... |
|
|
HEY! Napster for recipes already exists! It's called ERMster. Check it out at www.foryourinfotech.com. |
|
|
Sirrobin,
SOAR is awesome! Thanks for the link. I have gotten a lot of recipes off of it already. |
|
|
Does anyone know what the .rec suffix is. (I imagine it is for recipes) but are browser supposed to read this different than an html or txt page or something? |
|
|
fyit: so basically what you are saying is you stole my idea and are trying to make $20 a pop off the software which implements my stolen idea? |
|
|
op: .rec is for recreation. It's a Usenet prefix. |
|
|
I didn't steal your idea, and I'm not charging $20 a pop for ERMster. ERMster is 100% freeware. My company also sells the Electronic Recipe Manager , but it is a stand-alone product. I give a fully functional (limited edition) version of ERM away for free. If you want the full version of the ERM, that costs money (and it's cheaper than most recipe managment packages out there). |
|
|
ERMster is a separate program that provides a way to freely distribute and search for recipes across users on the ERMster network. ERMster is free for everyone. Your idea wasn't stolen, ERMster was developed before you ever posted this page. You should do research before accusing someone of such things. |
|
|
Also, didn't you get your idea from Napster? |
