Food. It’s something we spend a lot of time on, when I post links to good restaurants or the food I am eating, I always get a response from my friends and followers.
It’s also a part of the covergence between offline and online that’s largely untapped, and the popularity of apps like Foodspotting show it’s beginning to be thought about, but Foodily takes sharing food to another level, calling themselves a ‘search engine for comparing recipes’ Foodily not only presents recipes from around the web in a beautiful and clear way with a magazine-like experience, but today they launched a feature which makes creating and sharing food social.
Through integrations with Facebook, foods ‘liked’ on Foodily will appear in your Facebook feed and recipes your friend’s ‘like’ will appear in your Foodily recipe search.
