Lost Returns Tonight

Thankfully last night ABC ran the season ender from last year so we could all get caught up and be reminded about everything that happened because it’s been so friggin’ long.

But the re-run came with a twist, comments appeared at the bottom of the screen from time to time that gave you a little background and insight into what was happening on the screen.  I woud say the tone was a little dark with the comments.  It was as if they hired a disgruntled employee from Pop-Up Videos.  Either way, I thought it was TV gold.  With a series that’s pretty darn complex, this was agreat way to get caught up.

Also, I feel pretty darn convinced after rewatching that episode that Ben is in that coffin.

This clip has nothing to do with last nights episode, but I still found it funny.

Where’s your Domino’s pizza? Track it online

After ordering pizza for the gang on Super Bowl Sunday, many folks will be able to go online and track the progress of their pies.Domino’s, the pizza-delivery kingpin, on Wednesday will unveil a technology, Pizza Tracker, that lets customers literally track their pizza from the moment they place the order until it leaves the store en route to them. What’s more, Domino’s vows that its online tracking system — for phone or online orders — is accurate to within 40 seconds.

“We’re filling that black box of uncertainty — ‘Has my pizza been forgotten?’ — with information and entertainment,” says Chris McGlothlin, technology chief at Domino’s.

The system goes up Wednesday at 3,400 Domino’s outlets and will be in all stores by June 30, he says. It even gives folks the first names of the workers who take their phone order and deliver their pizza — and asks customers to rate them.
