PrintAnyone use BigOven.com?
I just came across this website, which is like a search engine and social network for cooks and food enthusiasts. Has anyone heard of it? Does anyone use it?

I'm really impressed with just a cursory glance. The three medal winning recipes are immediately going into my recipe box. I will definitely spend some time there and may join. Thanks for the heads up LiveTo Eat!

I have downloaded the software and like it very much (caveat: when downloading pick your own location to store it...the one it choose for me was a nightmare to find!) I was able to import all my old MasterCook files, saving a lot of work, and the "import from web" feature is fantastic. It is a snap to post recipes to my blog, all with uniform formatting. I haven't posted to the site, or used it much however. No reason, just haven't.

Thanks, Perky. I like the looks of it too. It randomly came across my radar here at work so of course I had to take a moment and share it with SE!

I have been a longtime user of BigOven (after trying lots of others -- MealMaster, Living Cookbook, and AccuChef, etc) and really like the program. BigOven is my top choice for recipe managment. It stores and accesses my large (26,000+) recipe collection without problems and prints & exports to the web beautifully. There is even a mobile version -- I use that to refer to recipes while I'm at the grocery store.
BigOven is currently overdue for an update (they promise it, "real soon now"), but the current version is solid and very useful.
Highest recommendation from this statisfied user!

@LiveToEat - Thanks for the heads-up! I just cruised over for a look and now I want to go back and look around.
