#22

I really liked both of the first sites you two listed. I too am of the opinion that recipe books sans pictures are obnoxious. makeuseof was like a webolution unto itself. Almost too overwhelming in its vastness, but very cool none the less.

Both of my favorite sites have "all" in the title. Maybe they're related, maybe not. I'm too lazy to look into this coincidence.

The former is similar to tastespotting but a bit more searchable with similar recipes showing up on the side of each page.

Allmusic is just plain awesome. It's incredibly diverse in its scope, has a lot of depth, can be searched by genre, subgenre, and moods. For every artist you normally get a discography, artists similar to other whoever you're looking at, groups that are influenced by a said group, and bands that influenced that artist. The more obscure the musical artist you search the less information you get, but that can be expected. And, on top of all that you can sign up for a weekly newsletter that shows most (not all, that would be next to impossible, so we'll ignore the implications of the site's name) albums that are being released that week.
