feature additioooon

put up a new feature this morning before i went to work: you can now search for ingredients! on the left hand side of spots like the ingredient main page you'll have an ingredient sleuth box, and if you're looking for all of the ingredients with cheese in their name or something, just type type it in and away you go!

the only issue being that it searches both names and description, and i've no clue how to weight them. something that has the body text "this is totally different from cheese" is going to roll up just as high as "ricotta cheese" as its name. i suppose we'll all just have to buckle down and live with it, at least for the time being.

next up:


  • searching tags (taking a page from feature requests on mefi)

  • RSS feeds (cue terms like stickiness)

  • del.icio.us button? (did you know people save recipes to del.icio.us?!) (also: it seems a little self-important to add the button, but let's just bury our modest heads in the sand and do it)
