Delivery in Boston?
I recently moved from NYC to Boston and am having a hard time finding restaurants that deliver. Any suggestions?

It's going to depend on your neighborhood what restaurants will deliver to you. Foodler.com and DiningIn.com are centralized services that will pick up food and deliver it to you from various restaurants, though there'll generally be a minimum, plus a convenience charge on top of that. Oh, and if you live near Davis Square/Powderhouse Circle, http://www.tuftslife.com/dining/ , though it appears to be down at the moment.
Otherwise, you're probably best off walking around your neighborhood and seeing what's available. What neighborhood do you live in?

Also nightowldeliveries.com (open 24/7, will make multiple stops), or campusfood.com (pizza/chinese places, no delivery charge for website)

I've used all four. Here's my take.
DiningIn charges too much, and takes too long. Nightowl is great for some restaurants, but the great thing is that they're available through Foodler and campsfood for no extra charge. (And since the nightowl website is pretty crappy, I'd rather use Foodler.)
Between Foodler and Campus, it mostly comes down to which site you like better. The only real difference is that with Foodler , you don't have to pretend you live on a nearby campus to find out who delivers to you. They tell you who delivers based on your address. The third time I tried a cfood place and was told by the restaurant "We'd don't deliver to you", I knew I should stick with Foodler.

I would stick with the more reliable delivery services:
www.diningin.com
www.takeouttaxi.com
www.eatnow.com
All the other delivery sites suck. They will make you wait at least 2 hours if not more.
