What are the differences to other apps?

This application shortcuts the process of looking for recipes by compiling posts and recipes from multiple food blogs.

How does the web app look and feel to use?

Like most WordPress blogs, FoodPress is easy to navigate. The banner has links to sections while a sidebar leads to the most used tags. Each featured recipe is linked to the blog it was posted in and opens that blog in a new window.

The sections are easy to use and browse, but a search feature for particular ingredients would be very helpful. Tags include: baking, BBQ, breakfast, brunch, dessert, side dishes, and vegetarian. Interestingly, there is no tag for main dishes. The Favorite Food Photos section is fun to look at and the photos rival the most lovely gourmet magazine shots.

It is understandable that this site uses a WordPress blog as it is featuring WordPress food bloggers, but it seems to limit the capabilities of the site.

How does the registration process work?

No registration is necessary.

What does it cost to use the application?

There are no fees associated with the blog.

Who would you recommend the application to?

Foodies who are interested in finding new, interesting recipe collections from multiple sources will likely enjoy FoodPress, as will those who enjoy browsing through the latest cooking magazines with no specific ingredients in mind.
