I was the poster in the "dirty or clean" thread. I love Tastebook. Almost all the recipes were ones I typed in, although many are copied from magazines or other cookbooks. I find its a great service to not only keep my recipes organized, but also to share with others. Many of the ones, I leave private since I either copied them, or 'borrowed' a nice image from the web. In this case, the recipe is for my own use, I don't feel comfortable with having those out in the wild (it wouldn't be fair to the originators). Lately TasteBook has gotten a little picky when it comes to certain 'key words' that may indicate plagiarism, eg I wanted to transcribe a Bobby Flay recipe from his Throwdown Show (it was actually his competitors arroz con pollo recipe), and it wouldn't let me save it with the words "Bobby Flay" in it (B. Flay worked just fine though ) Where the sharing comes in handy, is that I order books for my friends and family, and then send them recipes from time to time. It's a little pricey, but in the end it works out great for everyone -- and the best part is you can do it piecemeal since its basically just a fancy binder.... Hope this helps...
