WOW!!  Congratulations Jane & Fiona, what a fabulous article in today's New York Times where EYB beats out heavy hitters such as Google and Bing as the best resource for recipe searches!

I guess those of us who have already discovered this and been members for a while better fasten our seatbelts. . . .I can only imagine the rush of new members that will be signing up after reading such a compelling piece.  

Here's the link to the NYT article:

Fabulous news, congratulations!

Thank you so much Sue - don't worry, we'll still love our "old" members as much as the shiny, new ones!

We have been trying to get exposure in the New York Times for a while so we are really happy we finally made it and even happier that it was so positive.  Though it was a bit ambiguous that "So far, it has built up around 80,000 searchable titles" - I hope people don't expect over 19 million recipes, which is what we would have if we'd indexed 84,000 titles.

Just wondering if anything ever came of the person who posted in the forum a few months back about writing an article ? Some of us offered to be interviewed (myself included). I know that I never heard anything further...

The article was written by Michele Kayal of the Associated Press and was carried by about 160 papers and websites, which was great exposure for EYB.  She talked to EYB member Mary-Claire van Leunen and quoted her extensively.  Ellabee added a link to one of the articles, in USA Today, at the end of the topic Michele had set up.

We always put all articles about EYB on the Press page - there is a link at the bottom of the screen.
