Why go to all the trouble of dialing the phone to order a pizza. Now you can Order Dominos Pizza via Command Line. Looks like this can’t work here in Canada though. 🙁 I think it would be cool to setup a crontab to automatically order a pizza for you on a schedule. 🙂 I can just imagine when this catches on and you call to ask a question about available toppings, they will suggest you have a look at the man page.
"Pizza Party is a free text based software package for ordering pizza, or for throwing pizza parties. Pizza Party has many features to make ordering pizza easy:

this is cool and all, I guess if you were stuck at a unix console all day it would be helpful, but anyone with a web browser can just go to domino’s web page and place an order, and use their cupons…. still cool though.
