Ain’t technology great?

At one of my first newspaper jobs, my editor liked to joke whenever something went awry: "Ain’t technology great?" Of course, this was before our office had the Internet. Or email. Or even cell phones. I couldn’t have launched The Comic’s Comic without any of these advances. Online social networks keep me in the loop on upcoming shows, and also keep me connected to comedians around the world. A video camera that fits in my pocket lets me capture exclusive interviews and in a couple of clicks, share them with you. I can bring you comedy news as it happens, no matter where it happens, thanks to technology. So yeah, it is great. Now if only I could find a gizmo that paid all my bills…
