The Death of the Laugh Track?

Sometimes I wish I had a laugh track, especially when my blogged jokes fall flat.

But according to a couple experts, we digital writers need to prepare for a world without the good old laugh track. 

Over at Reel Pop, Steve Bryant is meditating on what makes a web video funny. After linking to some of the funniest web video makers in the business, he delivers some surprising insight about the future (or lack thereof) of the laugh track.

What do you think? Will the pace, delivery, and quickness of new media kill the laugh-track? Are hundreds of studio audiences out of work? What will happen to the thousands and thousands of reels of canned laughter that will be useless in the 21st Century?

Dig it: 

"Ah, tweens: Weened on internet vids, social networks, and other forms of interactive entertainment, but here we are trotting out the same old tricks. We're 'sposed to be so damned media savvy, so do we still need artificial sweetener? Do we still need the laugh track? Nah. Exhibit A: Smosh. Exhibit B: KevJumba. Exhibit C: SoPedestrian."
