Subway Launch Order By SMS

Startling news has reached the Venturian Media offices that over the pond in the good old US of Stateside things are changing that are going to have a startling affect on the way we live our lives. No I’m not talking about Mr Obama becoming El Presidente’, the more important news is Subway are allowing you to order via SMS Txt message!

Now I’m partial to a subway or two (6″ Southwest Cheesesteak has changed this formerly lean mean footballing machine into something that resembles a size five football) and this could prove catastrophic to my diet plans. No longer will I be put off by the thought of the long queues during the Northampton lunchtime rush hour as I’ll be able to text through my order and go straight to the front of the queue to pick it up. Think of the calories I won’t be using up by walking those extra 5 yards.

Fortunately this hasn’t hit good old blighty just yet, but when it does I’m sure I’ll have a little test – purely from a technology point of view you understand. It’s interesting to see technological innovations such as this hitting the fast food market and it will interesting to see the next innovations.
