Who Wants Pizza?

Ordering food has never been easier. It seems the future of delivery lies in online apps that are available at the touch of a button, especially now that mobile apps are teaming up with one another. Foursquare and GrubHub recently merged so that when you're on Foursquare, you can see participating delivery restaurants from the GrubHub app as well.

This sounds like a fantastic idea, especially since the majority of what we do is online now. It's smart for restaurants to get on board with integrating themselves with social media. It makes them more accessible, and thus more profitable.

The only problem is that it has to actually work. The Tarheel Takeout system we have here at Chapel Hill is a great consolidation of restaurants that makes it easier to browse through just one site. Hopefully this merger between Foursquare and GrubHub will be successful as well.
