Article Text

A "Label" is a short piece of text. It can be anything you want, but we recommend keeping it to 2-3 words.

efoodi keeps all the labels you enter in a list on the right-hand side of the page. When you click on a label, it's as if you searched efoodi for the words in the label text, and efoodi displays the results that match it.

So what's the bottom line? Here are some examples:

1. If you think your recipe should be interesting to vegetarians, be sure to label it "vegetarian".

2. If the restaurant you enter is open late, try labeling it with "open late" or "late night".

Now, if you really want to be clever, you can use the label system to categorize and organize all your items...

Say you want to be able to find all your favorite recipes with a single click. Then, label each one with "favorite". Now, if you go to your profile page and search your recipes for "favorite", you'll find all the recipes you labeled. Neat eh?

You can use the labels to personalize your search any way you want. Here are some other suggestions:

1. Label your restaurants by broad area (e.g. "downtown", "waterfront", "soho", etc.)

2. Label drinks by type (producer, vineyeard, etc.)

3. Label recipes with "fast", "easy", "hard", etc.

Try it out!
