What makes a cookbook a clunker and what do you do with them? http://cookbooker.com/test-dir/forum/discussion/93/what-makes-a-cookbook-a-clunker-and-what-do-you-do-with-them Thu, 08 Nov 2012 10:01:18 -0500 Queezle Sister 93@/test-dir/forum/discussions
What do you do when you think a cookbook is a clunker? How many recipes do you need to try, and then do you get rid of the book?
I think I should get rid of some of my own cookbooks, but am strangely reluctant. Do any of you suffer from a similar problem, or do you purge regularly? ]]>

The New Future of Cookbooker http://cookbooker.com/test-dir/forum/discussion/212/the-new-future-of-cookbooker Mon, 03 Feb 2014 16:20:55 -0500 andrew 212@/test-dir/forum/discussions
Although everything is not completely finalized, I'm pleased to let you all know that Cookbooker is not going to vanish into thin air in the near future. One of our members put me in touch with someone from ValuSoft Cosmi - the sellers of MasterCook software, and we've agreed that I will transfer control of Cookbooker to them. They have plans to eventually use it to support the selling of e-cookbooks and continue to support social interaction around cookbooks (which it kind of already does).

No money has changed hands. They'll be covering the hosting costs and I'll hang around for a while to support the transition, so I don't anticipate any near-term changes. Of course, once it's theirs, future changes will be up to them.

Essentially this seemed like the best way to keep the site intact as it is, which I know was a strong wish of our membership. ]]>

The first one though has the ISBN number that I think belongs to the hardback, although I don't know this for sure; my copies don't show ISBNs.
- The second and third (13279 and 11090) have no picture, so it's hard to tell what's going on.

Does anyone know if the hardback and spiral-bound bits have the same ISBNs? Seems weird, but maybe that's the way it was done.

I see at librarything they had a discussion about this series and ended up making three entries for each pair of books, one for the hardback, one for the spiral-bound, one for the both of them. At goodreads, they've defined a series for the Foods of the World and it all looks quite tidy, but hard to know if they mean the hardback or the spiral or both.

It would be nice to get this straightened out here, but my set without ISBNs makes it a bit difficult.

Any ideas about what we can do here to make this clearer? (I don't think we have a way to make series, do we? Maybe some kind of consistency in naming would help?)
