The true test of any technology’s value lies in how efficiently it can bring you pizza. And this week, Amazon’s Echo speaker is trying to prove its worth with the addition of pizza-ordering support from Domino’s. You’ll now be able to yell at the speaker to place an order and have it delivered to your door. This is probably one of the Echo’s biggest innovations, although the process sounds like it could be a lot smoother. You have to establish a preset order inside the Domino’s app, and then you have to remember to say this convoluted phrase to place an order: “Alexa, open Domino’s and place my Easy Order.” That’s just not at all a chill thing to shout across the room while drunkenly playing cards / watching football / looting a horde of kobolds in your weekly D&D session. But at least you won’t have to argue about toppings.
You can now make the Amazon Echo order you Domino’s pizza
