Thanks, I'll sort out the autocomplete.

The idea is that it provides a couple of things Google doesn't.

1. All results in one place, watch videos from across the web in one interface

2. Exclusivity of results - you know its all cooking and all good quality, don't have to weed through some of the random stuff from Google.

3. Ability to navigate, surf and refine. Helps you to explore dishes, ingredients, cuisines - for example to quickly look through popular Thai dishes and ingredients. This is something I hope will keep the cooks coming back for more, and will be working on improving in the coming months. Also realize I need to improve how I communicate this, both in conversation and to users!

Incorporating some community type features (votes, comments etc) may also help differentiate from Google and keep foodies coming back.
