Text Messaging Dinner

16 Nov

Gotta love it when big companies embrace practical technology!

Papa John’s now lets you order by text message! Cool!

And Domino’s lets you order via cell phones with internet connections.

I think Papa John’s wins that showdown, but at least they’ve both done something, as opposed to the one that shall remain nameless.

Hmm… and then there are the companies who make things difficult and user unfriendly, like Yahoo! I tried taking direct links to the companies mentioned in order to see if they are promoting their new options on their websites (Papa John’s is, Domino’s is not) , and all Yahoo would do is give me a pop-up box that I actually have to navigate through! And as if that weren’t pain-in-the-ass enough, once I finally click on a link, they don’t accept my decision. I still have to close that pop-up window manually! Come on, Yahoo!

Well, two thumbs up for Papa John’s, anyway. :)
