Pizza Online
from the that's-so-1999 dept
So you thought that silly dot coms had gone out of style? Not so. People are still trying. The lastest one is a pizza portal that will let you order a pizza online. The problems with this one are so huge it's not even remotely funny. First off, market size? Then, pizza delivery is not exactly a scaleable process (though Neal Stephenson would be proud as yet another part of Snow Crash comes true). Finally, um, what about all those other pizza places? Sooner or later they'll add online ordering capabilities, and then where does the "Pizza Portal" go?
Thank you for reading this Techdirt post. With so many things competing for everyone’s attention these days, we really appreciate you giving us your time. We work hard every day to put quality content out there for our community.
Techdirt is one of the few remaining truly independent media outlets. We do not have a giant corporation behind us, and we rely heavily on our community to support us, in an age when advertisers are increasingly uninterested in sponsoring small, independent sites — especially a site like ours that is unwilling to pull punches in its reporting and analysis.
While other websites have resorted to paywalls, registration requirements, and increasingly annoying/intrusive advertising, we have always kept Techdirt open and available to anyone. But in order to continue doing so, we need your support. We offer a variety of ways for our readers to support us, from direct donations to special subscriptions and cool merchandise — and every little bit helps. Thank you.

No Subject Given
As for other fast food? Are we THAT lazy? I like BK and all, but for them to have a pickup window is appealing...now maybe Togos.....hmmm. Most of the fastfood places cannot get my order right, if online they may have a comment section on how long to cook my burger, hold the tomatoes...:)
