Manage Recipes on the Palm Pre

Tuesday, June 16th, 2009

Yesterday I got some screen shots of One tsp. running on a Palm Pre. The recipe manager is available for mobile phones at onetsp.mobi and it turns out that the Pre renders the web app just fine. I’m serving the same interface to Pre users that I serve to iPhones. Both are based on the webkit browser so it makes sense that they would be compatible.

For users new to One tsp., the app runs in the web browser and registering for an account is free. This is better than recipe software that you would install on your phone because you can also access and manage your recipes from your desktop computer or anywhere else you have access to a web browser.

Thanks for the screen shots, Anthony!

Always Having Your Recipes At Hand

Tuesday, February 17th, 2009

One of the goals I’ve been striving to achieve with One tsp. is to make it really simple to store and view your favorite recipes, especially when you’re trying to throw something together for dinner at the end of the day, in the office or on the go. You can jump right onto your mobile phone and view your recipes using the mobile site.

Turns out, however, that as things were up until this weekend, that sometimes meant jumping back and forth between recipes, or having to look up recipes again through your tag list. There is no search on the mobile interface… yet.

So this weekend I added a history list for your most recently viewed recipes, which is available from the home page on the web and mobile sites. So after looking through recipes at the office, you can head to the grocery store and quickly refer back to the two, three, or four recipes you were digging through — right from the One tsp. home page.

This sort of stuff will continue to get easier with the additions planned over the coming weeks.
