Our office is a nonstop inundation of technology and information. We spend our days geeking out about mobile phone apps, social networks, blogs, widgets, the latest and greatest in online video, and things that are so nerdy I dare not admit to them here.
We also spend a fair amount of time griping about technology when it doesn’t work as quickly or perfectly as we’d like. There are those L trains that don’t seem to be able to ever run normally. The email inboxes that suddenly decide not to let you receive emails anymore. Phones that drop calls, iPod docks that don’t dock, video conferences that cause us to look like Max Hedroom…
But in the spirit of Thanksgiving (only a week away! hooray!), perhaps we ought to take a step back and just appreciate how awesome it is that we can do things like carrying music around with us and interacting with colleagues on the other side of the ocean – ON TV!!! And, as Louis CK reminds us, this whole flying through the air thing is pretty cool too.
