Technology... (Score 1)

It might be a bit treasonous to post this comment on a technology-oriented site, but I think it's a (sad) side-effect of technology. Take photography for instance. Photography in the past meant buying film (remember that stuff?), setting your ISO, adjusting your f-stops and shutter speed, framing the photo the way you wanted it, possibly developing your own film (a love-hate labor in my experience), getting really into it and setting up a dark room, mixing chemicals, hanging film to dry in your shower, busting out with the enlarger........ Now all you need is a digital point-and-click and Photoshop. Where's the fun in that?!? Yes there's certainly art to it, I won't suggest there isn't, but man, it's just not the same.
