I'm grateful for Technology!
Technology, when you think about it, has a lot of reversed expectations. I mean, how many times have you experienced or heard of someone trying to do one thing with technology, and ending up doing something not quite as expected? As a fun example, do you remember that video of the lawyer who joined a Zoom call with a cat filter that he couldn't turn off? And if you haven't seen it, I strongly recommend that you check it out: 'I'm not a cat': lawyer gets stuck on Zoom kitten filter during court case. Talk about a reversed expectation!
But the opposite is also true. There are many times that I don't even think something is possible, but technology has enabled it. For example, me being able to schedule this post for Monday despite me taking time over the weekend to actually write it. When I started a blog back in 2011, which really wasn't that long ago, scheduled posts weren't a possibility - it was posted to your blog when you wrote it, and that's all there was to it. It's really neat to see little things, like scheduling a post, that are so easy to take for granted, are truly benefiting our lives, and I am definitely grateful for that!
