Let me tell you about an interesting startup called: OpenSource Food. That’s a really cool web corner, based on a very good concept. What I get here from website is open source food is a web corner where you can learn about cooking and have different recipes which you can try at your pace. Here you can share your thoughts about recipe and also share you recipe with others who are interested in it; lots of attractive food pictures available in lots of modes of actions with their cooks. So if you like any recipe (or cook) you can start to chat with them share your views with them.

If you think your recipe is good, if you want to get views of others you can get help to upload your recipe with nice pictures of it, you can give ratings to recipes made by others.

You can get blog some style widget where you can find your last 10 recipe in nice attractive sideshow with their different features. What is more you can say itâ€™s a place of food â€“festival on web.

If you love all the stuff described above, then you can start to make your recipe and open a website; all you have to do is first just register yourself or sign up, after that click on add recipe button which is available at the top. To add a new recipe is very simple. After adding your recipe you can save it as draft if you want to finish in more than one sitting.Here is difference between recipe and menu, normally menu is collection of different recipes, where you can create your own menu as per your own wish. Which is very simple drape & drop style.

In my opinion it is a very good and nice work, with excellent design. It provides clear outlook and visible buttons labels. The site is very much user friendly, even though there are some problem with web application which hides text links

There are some minor problems with this site. When I tried to add images as thumbnails I couldnâ€™t do it, as it looks like it doesnâ€™t accept it. Which is not good at all? All there is not clear instruction about if, I donâ€™t like nay comment than how do I go back and clear all that stuff and if I donâ€™t like any users comments, how do I can delete it.

I hope, this website will be upgraded with more features and functionality as it shows potential.
