SESAME I love
recipes, I love
reading cookery
books, I even, on
occasion, make
things from these
books too. And
sometimes it’s
even edible.
This app is
incredible. The
reason for this?
It's simple - you do the work, you choose what
recipes you collect, what recipes you file, and
you can file in a multitude of ways.
The app allows you to make that list and keep
it - using it whenever you're out and about. It
also allows you to edit the recipes, so if you
find a shortcut or want to adapt something to
personalise it, you can.
It’s kind of like having your own ever changing
library in your iPad, allowing you to edit,
adapt, collect and enjoy your food! ∎
JACK’D, the fastest
growing gay app in the
world among young gay
men, today released the
findings of a community
survey conducted
amongst its users in the
United Kingdom. With same sex
marriage legalised on March 29th in
England and Wales, Jack’d surveyed its
community - 80 percent of which are
18-30 years old -on their impressions of
marriage and love in modern times.
Users in the UK were polled using an inapp survey, which revealed that younger
gay men tend to be more optimistic about
getting married at some point in their
life, compared to older gay men. Of those
polled, 62 percent of gay men aged 18 to
25 stated they would be open to getting
married to another man, whilst only 45
percent of those 26 years and above
saw marriage in their future. ∎
