Watch Your Pizza Being Made Online

I'm generally very open to new technologies. I blog. I Twitter. While I don't have an iPhone (yet), I am perfectly sympathetic to people who feel the need to read CNN.com headlines during movie previews.

This, however, has me scratching me head: A "Pizza Cam" from Santa Clara, California-based Party Pizza pizzeria. You order your pizza, then log in to the "Dough Cam," "Kitchen Cam" and "Oven Cam" to watch your pizza in various stages of gestation. You can even get a Pizza Cam app for your iPhone.

I like the idea of knowing where my food comes from, but that doesn't generally get as specific as knowing what it looks like while the mozzarella melts. The phrase "like watching grass grow" springs to mind.

It makes you wonder; "If a watched pot never boils, does a watched pizza ever bake"? lol
