Sympatico.ca has redesigned its French-language cooking site at <http://www.viteunerecette.ca>. The site, aimed primarily at women between the ages of 35 and 55, offers approximately 2,000 recipes drawn from publications including Coup de Pouce, Madame and Saveurs du Monde. The site has been modified to make searching for a recipe easier, and to allow users to rate and share recipes. Other content includes restaurant reviews and advice columns. In addition, advertisers will now be able to integrate their brands into the content of the site as well as run traditional banner advertising.
Toronto radio station Jazz FM 91 has expanded its website at <http://www.jazz.fm>. The site now includes a new section called the Canadian Jazz Archive Online, which is a collection of artist biographies, interviews, photographs, streaming music and original documentaries. The site also includes English and French teaching materials aimed at public schools. "By creating and presenting the Canadian Jazz Archive Online, not only do we enrich the users' understanding of the jazz genre in Canada, but by preserving and sharing this content, we also ensure our commitment to cultural enrichment and education into the future," said Ross Porter, president and CEO of the station.
