It is for everyone who enjoys cooking, needs recipes and wants to share their recipes with other people on the Internet.

3. Features Nice and easy-to-use interface (Ajax)
Show extracted recipe from some websites
Filter options (Mexican or Italian?)
Rating or feedback
User can upload recipes

4. A Possible Layout

5. System and Software Architecture:
Platform: Nutch on Linux (Lucy if prefer c, Perl and ruby)
Language: Java, JSP
Tools: Could be eclipse
Addition: Simple machine learning

6. Lifecycle Plan: (Staged Delivery)
Software Concept
Requirement Analysis
(~ 1 week)
Stage 1: Tools Set up and system understanding (~ 1 week)
Stage 2: Coding + Testing + Release
Stage 3: Coding + Testing + Release (~ 5 weeks)
Stage 4: Final testing + Wrap up (~ 1 week)

7. Feasibility Rationale
We took CSE454 class (Internet Services) and we know some basic concepts of search engine
Cut off the Ajax feature because this project is quite big and might involve a lot of reading and understanding about search engine.
