MARCH 31, 2008


A Letter to Shareholders

Dear Shareholder

Financial markets endured severe bouts of volatility during the reporting period, particularly as the calendar turned to

2008. It was then that fears of an economic recession swelled and credit market strains intensified, producing calamity

in the financial system and, ultimately, the demise of major Wall Street firm Bear Stearns.

The Federal Reserve Board (the “Fed”), after cutting the target federal funds rate 100 basis points (1%) between

September 2007 and year-end, stepped up its efforts to support the ailing financial sector in the first three months of

2008. The central bank cut interest rates 125 basis points in January alone, and followed with another 75-basis-point

cut on March 18, bringing the target rate to 2.25% . In an unprecedented move, the Fed also extended its financing

operations directly to broker/dealers and assisted JPMorgan in its buyout of ill-fated Bear Stearns.

Against this backdrop, investor anxiety has been acute and equity markets have struggled. The S&P 500 Index of U.S.

stocks was down in March, marking the fifth consecutive month of negative returns. International markets outperformed

the U.S. for much of 2007, but that trend changed in more recent months as investors grew increasingly reluctant to

take on the risks of foreign investing.

In fixed income markets, an ongoing investor flight to quality continued to drive Treasury yields lower and their prices

higher. The yield on 10-year Treasury issues, which touched 5.30% in June 2007 (its highest level in five years), fell to

4.04% by year-end and to 3.45% by March 31. Investors largely shunned bonds associated with the housing and credit

markets, and the riskier high yield sector landed in negative territory year-to-date. Meanwhile, the municipal bond market

has struggled with concerns around the creditworthiness of monoline bond insurers and the failure of auctions for

auction rate securities, driving yields higher and prices lower across the curve. At period-end, municipal bonds were

trading at higher yields than their Treasury counterparts, a very unusual occurrence by historical standards.

Overall, the major benchmark indexes posted mixed results for the current reporting period, generally reflecting height-

ened investor risk aversion:

Fund Summary

Portfolio Management Commentary

How did the Fund perform?
Fund results lagged that of the broad-market S&P 500 Index for the
12-month period. The Fund also underperformed the +3.87% blended
return of its former technology reference index (a portfolio comprised of
75% Goldman Sachs Tech Composite Index, 20% MSCI World Information
Technology Index and 5% MSCI Asia Pacific ex-Japan Index) and the
NYSE Arca Tech 100 Index (its reference index since January 1, 2008).

What factors influenced performance?
The Fund’s underperformance of the technology reference indexes was
largely the result of negative stock selection, while sector allocation
effects detracted to a lesser extent. Weak stock selection was most
meaningful within the semiconductors, Internet software & services,
communications equipment, computer hardware and computer storage
& peripherals groups. The Fund also suffered from an underweight in
computer hardware, which performed strongly during the period, and an
overweight in the semiconductors and computer storage & peripherals
groups, which posted weak results.

From an individual stock point of view, Spansion LLC and Micron
Technology, Inc. detracted from relative results due to significant declines
in the companies’ shares. Additionally, while Apple Inc. was a strong
performer during the period, the Fund’s underweighting of this stock
had a negative impact on performance versus the reference indexes.

Fund performance benefited from an underweight in the semiconductor
equipment and data processing & outsourced services groups, as well
as from strong positioning within these areas. Additionally, the Fund’s

overweight position in home entertainment software and underexposure
to application software contributed positively to relative results.

Kurita Water Industries Ltd. was among the more significant contributors
to relative performance over the period. Corning, Inc. also provided
strong results, as did Global Payments, Inc., whose shares held up
well in a difficult market.

Describe recent portfolio activity.
Effective January 18, 2008, portfolio management responsibility for
the Fund changed. Accordingly, portfolio positioning shifted consistent
with the new team’s investment process. Specifically, exposure to semi-
conductor equipment, application software and data processing & out-
sourced services was increased. The team also initiated positions in
the health care sector and increased the Fund’s weighting in industrials.
Conversely, the Fund’s exposure to semiconductors, home entertainment
software, Internet software & services, IT consulting & other services and
systems software was reduced.

Describe Fund positioning at period-end.
At the end of its fiscal year, the Fund was most overweight in health care
equipment and home entertainment software and had an allocation
to telecommunication services, which is not included in the NYSE Arca
Tech 100 Index. Underweighted sectors relative to the reference index
included biotechnology and life science tools & services, application
software and aerospace & defense.

Geographically, approximately 20% of the Fund’s net assets was allocated
to non-U.S. companies at period-end.

About Fund Performance

Institutional Shares are not subject to any sales charge. Institutional
Shares bear no ongoing distribution or service fees and are available
only to eligible investors.

Investor A Shares incur a maximum initial sales charge (front-end load)
of 5.25% and a service fee of 0.25% per year (but no distribution fee).

Investor B Shares are subject to a maximum contingent deferred sales
charge of 4.50% declining to 0% after six years. In addition, Investor B
Shares are subject to a distribution fee of 0.75% per year and a service
fee of 0.25% per year. These shares automatically convert to Investor A
Shares after approximately eight years. (There is no initial sales charge
for automatic share conversions.) All returns for periods greater than
eight years reflect this conversion.

Investor C Shares are subject to a distribution fee of 0.75% per year
and a service fee of 0.25% per year. In addition, Investor C Shares are
subject to a 1% contingent deferred sales charge if redeemed within
one year of purchase.

Class R Shares do not incur a maximum initial sales charge (front-end
load) or deferred sales charge. These shares are subject to a distribution
fee of 0.25% per year and a service fee of 0.25% per year. Class R Shares

are available only to certain retirement plans. Prior to inception, Class R
Share performance results are those of the Institutional Shares (which
have no distribution or service fees) restated to reflect Class R Share fees.

Performance information reflects past performance and does not guar-
antee future results. Current performance may be lower or higher than
the performance data quoted. Refer to www.blackrock.com/funds
to obtain performance data current to the most recent month-end.
Performance results do not reflect the deduction of taxes that a share-
holder would pay on fund distributions or the redemption of fund shares.
The Fund may charge a 2% redemption fee for sales or exchanges of
shares within 30 days of purchase or exchange. Performance data does
not reflect this potential fee. Figures shown in the performance tables on
page 5 assume reinvestment of all dividends and capital gain distribu-
tions, if any, at net asset value on the ex-dividend date. Investment
return and principal value of shares will fluctuate so that shares, when
redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost. Dividends
paid to each class of shares will vary because of the different levels of
service, distribution and transfer agency fees applicable to each class,
which are deducted from the income available to be paid to sharehold-
ers. The Fund’s manager waived a portion of its fee. Without such waiver,
the Fund’s returns would have been lower.

Disclosure of Expenses

Shareholders of this Fund may incur the following charges: (a) expenses
related to transactions, including sales charges, redemption fees and
exchange fees; and (b) operating expenses including advisory fees,
distribution fees including 12b-1 fees, and other Fund expenses. The
expense example on page 5 (which is based on a hypothetical investment
of $1,000 invested on October 1, 2007 and held through March 31,
2008) is intended to assist shareholders both in calculating expenses
based on an investment in the Fund and in comparing these expenses
with similar costs of investing in other mutual funds.

The table provides information about actual account values and actual
expenses. In order to estimate the expenses a shareholder paid during
the period covered by this report, shareholders can divide their account
value by $1,000 and then multiply the result by the number correspon-
ding to their share class under the heading entitled “Expenses Paid During
the Period.”

The table also provides information about hypothetical account values
and hypothetical expenses based on the Fund’s actual expense ratio
and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses. In order
to assist shareholders in comparing the ongoing expenses of investing
in this Fund and other funds, compare the 5% hypothetical example
with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in other funds’
shareholder reports.

The expenses shown in the table are intended to highlight shareholders’
ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional expenses, such
as sales charges, redemption fees or exchange fees. Therefore, the table
on page 5 is useful in comparing ongoing expenses only, and will not
help shareholders determine the relative total expenses of owning differ-
ent funds. If these transactional expenses were included, shareholder
expenses would have been higher.

MARCH 31, 2008


Notes to Financial Statements

1. Significant Accounting Policies:

BlackRock Technology Fund, Inc. (formerly BlackRock Global Technology
Fund, Inc.) (the “Fund”) is registered under the Investment Company
Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”), as a diversified, open-end
management investment company. The Fund’s financial statements are
prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in
the United States of America, which may require the use of management
accruals and estimates. Actual results may differ from these estimates.
The Fund offers multiple classes of shares. Institutional Shares are sold
without a sales charge and only to certain eligible investors. Investor A
Shares are sold with a front-end sales charge. Investor B and Investor C
Shares may be subject to a contingent deferred sales charge. Class R
Shares are sold only to certain retirement plans. All classes of shares
have identical voting, dividend, liquidation and other rights and the
same terms and conditions, except that Investor A, Investor B, Investor C
and Class R Shares bear certain expenses related to the shareholder
servicing of such shares, and Investor B, Investor C and Class R Shares
also bear certain expenses related to the distribution of such shares.
Each class has exclusive voting rights with respect to matters relating to
its shareholder servicing and distribution expenditures (except that
Investor B shareholders may vote on material changes to the Investor A
distribution plan).

The following is a summary of significant accounting policies followed by
the Fund:

Valuation of Investments: Equity investments traded on a national
securities exchange or on the NASDAQ Global Market System are
valued at the last reported sale price that day or the NASDAQ official
closing price, if applicable. Equity investments traded on a national
securities exchange for which there were no sales on that day and
equity investments traded on other over-the-counter markets for which
market quotations are readily available are valued at the last available
bid price. Investments in open-end investment companies are valued at
net asset value each business day.

Effective September 4, 2007, exchange-traded options are valued at the
mean between the last bid and ask prices at the close of the options
market in which the options trade and previously were valued at the last
sales price as of the close of options trading on applicable exchanges.
Over-the-counter (“OTC”) options quotations are provided by dealers
or pricing services selected under the supervision of the Board of
Directors (the “Board”). Considerations utilized by dealers or pricing
services in valuing OTC options include, but are not limited to, volatility
factors of the underlying security, price movement of the underlying
security in relation to the strike price and the time left until the expira-
tion of the option.

In the event that application of these methods of valuation results in
a price for an investment which is deemed not to be representative of
the market value of such investment, the investment will be valued by
a method approved by the Board as reflecting fair value (“Fair Value
Assets”). When determining the price for Fair Value Assets, the invest-
ment advisor and/or sub-advisor seeks to determine the price that the
Fund might reasonably expect to receive from the current sale of that
asset in an arm’s-length transaction. Fair value determinations shall be
based upon all available factors that the investment advisor and/or sub-
advisor deems relevant. The pricing of all Fair Value Assets is subse-
quently reported to the Board or a committee thereof.

Generally, trading in foreign securities is substantially completed each
day at various times prior to the close of business on the New York
Stock Exchange (“NYSE”). The values of such securities used in comput-
ing the net assets of the Fund are determined as of such times. Foreign
currency exchange rates will be determined as of the close of business
on the NYSE. Occasionally, events affecting the values of such securities
and such exchange rates may occur between the times at which they
are determined and the close of business on the NYSE that may not
be reflected in the computation of the Fund’s net assets. If events
(for example, a company announcement, market volatility or a natural
disaster) occur during such periods that are expected to materially
affect the value of such securities, those securities may be valued at
their fair value as determined in good faith by the Board or by the
investment advisor using a pricing service and/or procedures approved
by the Board.

Derivative Financial Instruments: The Fund may engage in various
portfolio investment strategies to increase the return of the Fund and
to hedge, or protect, its exposure to interest rate movements and move-
ments in the securities markets. Losses may arise if the value of the con-
tract decreases due to an unfavorable change in the price of the under-
lying security, or if the counterparty does not perform under the contract.

Options: The Fund may purchase and write call and put options.
When the Fund writes an option, an amount equal to the premium
received by the Fund is reflected as an asset and an equivalent lia-
bility. The amount of the liability is subsequently marked-to-market to
reflect the current market value of the option written. When a security
is purchased or sold through an exercise of an option, the related
premium paid (or received) is added to (or deducted from) the basis
of the security acquired or deducted from (or added to) the proceeds
of the security sold. When an option expires (or the Fund enters into
a closing transaction), the Fund realizes a gain or loss on the option
to the extent of the premiums received or paid (or gain or loss to the

BLACKROCK TECHNOLOGY FUND, INC.

MARCH 31, 2008

Notes to Financial Statements (continued)

extent the cost of the closing transaction exceeds the premium
received or paid). If an option is exercised, the premium paid or
received is added to the cost of the purchase or the proceeds from
the sale in determining whether a Fund has realized a gain or a loss
on investment transactions.

A call option gives the purchaser of the option the right (but not the
obligation) to buy, and obligates the seller to sell (when the option is
exercised), the underlying position at the exercise price at any time
or at a specified time during the option period. A put option gives the
holder the right to sell and obligates the writer to buy the underlying
position at the exercise price at any time or at a specified time dur-
ing the option period.

Foreign Currency Transactions: Foreign currency amounts are translated
into United States dollars on the following basis: (i) market value of
investment securities, assets and liabilities at the current rate of
exchange; and (ii) purchases and sales of investment securities, income
and expenses at the rates of exchange prevailing on the respective dates
of such transactions.

The Fund reports foreign currency related transactions as components
of realized gains for financial reporting purposes, whereas such compo-
nents are treated as ordinary income for federal income tax purposes.

Investment Transactions and Net Investment Income: Investment trans-
actions are recorded on the dates the transactions are entered into
(the trade dates). Realized gains and losses on security transactions
are determined on the identified cost basis. Dividend income is recorded
on the ex-dividend dates. Dividends from foreign securities where the
ex-dividend date may have passed are subsequently recorded when the
Fund has determined the ex-dividend date. Interest income is recognized
on the accrual basis. Income and realized and unrealized gains and
losses are allocated daily to each class based on its relative net assets.

Dividends and Distributions: Dividends and distributions paid by the
Fund are recorded on the ex-dividend dates.

Securities Lending: The Fund may lend securities to financial institutions
that provide cash or securities issued or guaranteed by the U.S. govern-
ment as collateral, which will be maintained at all times in an amount
equal to at least 100% of the current market value of the loaned sec-
urities. The market value of the loaned securities is determined at the

close of business of the Fund and any additional required collateral is
delivered to the Fund on the next business day. The Fund typically
receives the income on the loaned securities but does not receive the
income on the collateral. Where the Fund receives cash collateral, it may
invest such collateral and retain the amount earned on such investment,
net of any amount rebated to the borrower. The Fund may receive a flat
fee for its loans. Loans of securities are terminable at any time and the
borrower, after notice, is required to return borrowed securities within the
standard time period for settlement of securities transactions. The Fund
may pay reasonable lending agent, administrative and custodial fees in
connection with its loans. In the event that the borrower defaults on its
obligation to return borrowed securities because of insolvency or for any
other reason, the Fund could experience delays and costs in gaining
access to the collateral. The Fund also could suffer a loss where the
value of the collateral falls below the market value of the borrowed
securities, in the event of borrower default or in the event of losses
on investments made with cash collateral.

Income Taxes: It is the Fund’s policy to comply with the requirements
of the Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment com-
panies and to distribute substantialy all of its taxable income to its
shareholders. Therefore, no federal income tax provision is required.
Under the applicable foreign tax laws, a withholding tax may be
imposed on interest, dividends and capital gains at various rates.

Effective September 28, 2007, the Fund implemented Financial
Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Interpretation No. 48, “Accounting
for Uncertainty in Income Taxes — an interpretation of FASB Statement
No. 109” (“FIN 48”). FIN 48 prescribes the minimum recognition thresh-
old a tax position must meet in connection with accounting for uncer-
tainties in income tax positions taken or expected to be taken by an
entity, including investment companies, before being measured and rec-
ognized in the financial statements. The investment advisor has evaluat-
ed the application of FIN 48 to the Fund, and has determined that the
adoption of FIN 48 did not have a material impact on the Fund’s finan-
cial statements. The Fund files U.S. federal and various state and local
tax returns. No income tax returns are currently under examination. The
statute of limitations on the Fund’s U.S. federal tax returns remain open
for the years ended March 31, 2005 through March 31, 2007. The
statute of limitations on the Fund’s state and local tax returns may
remain open for an additional year depending upon the jurisdiction.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements: In September 2006, Statement
of Financial Accounting Standards No. 157, “Fair Value Measurements”
(“FAS 157”), was issued and is effective for fiscal years beginning after

16 BLACKROCK TECHNOLOGY FUND, INC.

MARCH 31, 2008


Notes to Financial Statements (continued)

November 15, 2007. FAS 157 defines fair value, establishes a frame-
work for measuring fair value and expands disclosures about fair value
measurements. The impact on the Fund’s financial statement disclo-
sures, if any, is currently being assessed.

In addition, in February 2007, FASB issued Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards No. 159, “The Fair Value Option for Financial
Assets and Financial Liabilities” (“FAS 159”), which is effective for fiscal
years beginning after November 15, 2007. FAS 159 permits entities to
choose to measure many financial instruments and certain other items
at fair value that are not currently required to be measured at fair value.
FAS 159 also establishes presentation and disclosure requirements
designed to facilitate comparisons between entities that choose different
measurement attributes for similar types of assets and liabilities. The
impact on the Fund’s financial statement disclosures, if any, is currently
being assessed.

In March 2008, Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 161,
“Disclosures about Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities — an
amendment of FASB Statement No. 133” (“FAS 161”) was issued and is
effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2008. FAS 161
is intended to improve financial reporting for derivative instruments by
requiring enhanced disclosure that enables investors to understand how
and why an entity uses derivatives, how derivatives are accounted for,
and how derivative instruments affect an entity’s results of operations
and financial position. The investment advisor is currently evaluating the
implications of FAS 161 and the impact on the Fund’s financial state-
ment disclosures, if any, is currently being assessed.

Other: Expenses directly related to the Fund or its classes are charged to
the Fund or class. Other operating expenses shared by several funds are
pro-rated among those funds on the basis of relative net assets or other
appropriate methods. Other expenses of the Fund are allocated daily to
each class based on its relative net assets.

2. Investment Advisory Agreement and Other Transactions
with Affiliates:

The Fund entered into an Investment Advisory Agreement with BlackRock
Advisors, LLC, (the “Advisor”), an indirect, wholly owned subsidiary of
BlackRock, Inc. to provide investment advisory and administration servic-
es. Merrill Lynch & Co., Inc. (“Merrill Lynch”) and The PNC Financial
Services Group, Inc. (“PNC”) are principal owners of BlackRock, Inc.

The Advisor is responsible for the management of the Fund’s portfolio
and provides the necessary personnel, facilities, equipment and certain
other services necessary to the operation of the Fund. For such services,
the Fund pays a monthly fee at an annual rate of 1.0% of the average
daily net assets of the Fund not exceeding $1 billion, 0.95% of average
net assets of the Fund in excess of $1 billion but not exceeding $2
billion, and 0.90% of average daily net assets in excess of $2 billion.

Effective July 1, 2007, the Advisor has voluntarily agreed to waive 0.10%
of the investment advisory fee. The amount of the waiver is determined
monthly and can be discontinued at any time. This amount is included in
the fees waived by advisor in the Statement of Operations.

In addition, the Advisor has entered into a sub-advisory agreement
with BlackRock Investment Management, LLC (“BIM”), an affiliate of
the Advisor, under which the Advisor pays BIM, for services it provides, a
monthly fee at an annual rate equal to a percentage of the investment
advisory fee paid by the Fund to the Advisor. For the year ended March
31, 2008, the Fund reimbursed the Advisor $3,508, for certain account-
ing services, which is included in accounting services expenses in the
Statement of Operations.

The Fund has also entered into separate Distribution Agreements and
Distribution Plans with FAM Distributors, Inc. (“FAMD”) and BlackRock
Distributors, Inc. and its affiliates (“BDI”) (collectively, the “Distributor”).
FAMD is a wholly owned subsidiary of Merrill Lynch Group, Inc. and BDI
is an affiliate of BlackRock, Inc.

Pursuant to the Distribution Plans adopted by the Fund in accordance
with Rule12b-1 under the 1940 Act, the Fund pays the Distributor ongo-
ing service and distribution fees. The fees are accrued daily and paid
monthly at annual rates based upon the average daily net assets of the
shares as follows:

    Service    Distribution 
    Fee    Fee 

 
 
Investor A    0.25%     
Investor B    0.25%    0.75% 
Investor C    0.25%    0.75% 
Class R    0.25%    0.25% 

 
 

Pursuant to sub-agreements with each Distributor, broker-dealers, includ-
ing Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith Incorporated (“MLPF&S”), a
wholly owned subsidiary of Merrill Lynch, and each Distributor provide
shareholder servicing and distribution services to the Fund. The ongoing
service fee compensates the Distributor and each broker-dealer for pro-
viding shareholder servicing to Investor A, Investor B, Investor C and

BLACKROCK TECHNOLOGY FUND, INC.

MARCH 31, 2008

17


Notes to Financial Statements (continued)

Class R shareholders. The ongoing distribution fee compensates each
Distributor and each broker-dealer for providing distribution-related
services to Investor B, Investor C and Class R shareholders.

For the year ended March 31, 2008, the affiliates earned underwriting
discounts, direct commissions and dealer concessions on sales of the
Fund’s Investor A Shares, which totaled $6,680.

For the year ended March 31, 2008, affiliates received contingent
deferred sales charges of $94, $21,306 and $991 relating to transac-
tions in Investor A, Investor B and Investor C Shares, respectively.

The Advisor maintains a call center, which is responsible for providing
certain shareholder services to the Fund, such as responding to share-
holder inquiries and processing transactions based upon instructions
from shareholders with respect to the subscription and redemption of
Fund shares. For the year ended March 31, 2008 the following amounts
have been accrued by the Fund to reimburse the Advisor for costs
incurred running the call center, which are a component of the transfer
agent fees in the accompanying Statements of Operations.

    Call Center 
    Fees 

 
Institutional    $7,914 
Investor A    $4,778 
Investor B    $3,431 
Investor C    $1,735 
Class R    $ 26 

 

The Fund has received an exemptive order from the Securities and
Exchange Commission permitting it to lend portfolio securities to
MLPF&S or its affiliates. Pursuant to that order, the Fund has retained
BIM as the securities lending agent for a fee based on a share of the
returns on investment of cash collateral. BIM may, on behalf of the Fund,
invest cash collateral received by the Fund for such loans, among other
things, in a private investment company managed by the Advisor or in
registered money market funds advised by the Advisor or its affiliates.
For the year ended March 31, 2008, BIM received $30,521 in securities
lending agent fees.

In addition, MLPF&S received $335,162 in commissions on the execu-
tion of portfolio security transactions for the Fund for the year ended
March 31, 2008.

PFPC Inc., an indirect, wholly owned subsidiary of PNC and an affiliate
of the Advisor, serves as transfer agent. Each class of the Fund bears
the costs of transfer agent fees associated with such respective classes.
Transfer agency fees borne by each class of the Fund are comprised of
those fees charged for all shareholder communications including share-
holder reports, dividend and distribution notices, and proxy materials for
shareholders meetings, as well as per account and per transaction fees
related to servicing and maintenance of shareholder accounts, including
the issuing, redeeming and transferring of shares of each class of the
Fund, 12b-1 fee calculation, check writing, anti-money laundering services,
and customer identification services.

Certain officers and/or directors of the Fund are officers and/or directors
of BlackRock, Inc. or its affiliates.

3. Investments:

The Fund charges a 2% redemption fee on the proceeds (calculated at market value) of a redemption (either by sale or exchange) on Fund shares made within 30 days of purchase. The redemption fee is paid to the Fund and is intended to offset the trading costs, market impact and other costs associated with short-term trading into and out of the Fund.

Notes to Financial Statements (concluded)

5. Short-Term Borrowings:

The Fund, along with certain other funds managed by the Advisor and its
affiliates, is a party to a $500,000,000 credit agreement with a group of
lenders. The Fund may borrow under the credit agreement to fund share-
holder redemptions and for other lawful purposes other than for lever-
age. The Fund may borrow up to the maximum amount allowable under
the Fund’s current Prospectus and Statement of Additional Information,
subject to various other legal, regulatory or contractual limits. On
November 21, 2007, the credit agreement was renewed for one year
under substantially the same terms. The Fund pays a commitment fee
of 0.06% per annum based on the Fund’s pro rata share of the unused
portion of the credit agreement, which is included in miscellaneous
expenses in the Statement of Operations. Amounts borrowed under the
credit agreement bear interest at a rate equal to, at the fund’s election,
the federal funds rate plus 0.35% or a base rate as defined in the credit
agreement. The Fund did not borrow under the credit agreement during
the year ended March 31, 2008.

6. Income Tax Information:

Reclassifications: U.S. generally accepted accounting principles require
that certain components of net assets be adjusted to reflect permanent
differences between financial and tax reporting. Accordingly, during the
current year, $2,925,746 has been reclassified between paid-in capital
in excess of par and accumulated net investment loss and $448 has
been reclassified between accumulated net realized capital losses and
accumulated net investment loss as a result of permanent differences
attributable to net operating losses and foreign currency transactions.
These reclassifications have no effect on net assets or net asset values
per share.

As of March 31, 2008, the components of accumulated losses on a tax
basis were as follows:

Capital loss carryforward    $ (1,171,457,020)* 
Unrealized net losses           (60,360,315)** 
   
Total accumulated net losses    $ (1,231,817,335) 
   

* On March 31, 2008, the Fund had a capital loss carryforward of
$1,171,457,020, of which $22,590,014 expires in 2009, $918,433,560
expires in 2010, $226,710,557 expires in 2011 and $3,722,889 expires
in 2012. This amount will be available to offset future realized capital gains.
** The difference between book-basis and tax-basis net unrealized losses is
attributable primarily to the tax deferral of losses on wash sales and the
deferral of post-October capital losses for tax purposes.

7. Plan of Reorganization:

On February 26, 2008, the Board approved a plan of reorganization,
subject to shareholder approval and certain other conditions, whereby
BlackRock Global Science & Technology Opportunities Portfolio (“Global
Science”), a portfolio of BlackRock FundsSM, will acquire substantially
all of the assets and assume certain stated liabilities of the Fund in
exchange for newly issued shares of Global Science.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

To the Shareholders and Board of Directors of
BlackRock Technology Fund, Inc.:

We have audited the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities
of BlackRock Technology Fund, Inc. (the “Fund”) (formerly BlackRock
Global Technology Fund, Inc.) including the schedule of investments, as
of March 31, 2008, and the related statement of operations for the year
then ended, the statements of changes in net assets for each of the two
years in the period then ended, and the financial highlights for each of
the five years in the period then ended. These financial statements and
financial highlights are the responsibility of the Fund’s management. Our
responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and
financial highlights based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public
Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards
require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assur-
ance about whether the financial statements and financial highlights
are free of material misstatement. The Fund is not required to have, nor
were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over finan-
cial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over
financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are
appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing
an opinion on the effectiveness of the Fund’s internal control over finan-
cial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also

includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts
and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting
principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well
as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. Our proce-
dures included confirmation of securities owned as of March 31, 2008,
by correspondence with the custodian and brokers; where replies were
not received from brokers, we performed other auditing procedures. We
believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements and financial highlights referred
to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position
of BlackRock Technology Fund, Inc. as of March 31, 2008, the results
of its operations for the year then ended, the changes in its net assets
for each of the two years in the period then ended, and the financial
highlights for each of the five years in the period then ended, in con-
formity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United
States of America.

Item 2 – Code of Ethics – The registrant (or the “Fund”) has adopted a code of ethics, as of the end
of the period covered by this report, applicable to the registrant's principal executive officer,
principal financial officer and principal accounting officer, or persons performing similar
functions. During the period covered by this report, there have been no amendments to or
waivers granted under the code of ethics. A copy of the code of ethics is available without
charge at www.blackrock.com.

Item 3 – Audit Committee Financial Expert – The registrant's board of directors or trustees, as
applicable (the “board of directors”) has determined that (i) the registrant has the following
audit committee financial experts serving on its audit committee and (ii) each audit
committee financial expert is independent:
Ronald W. Forbes (not reappointed to audit committee, effective November 1, 2007)
Kenneth L. Urish (term began, effective November 1, 2007)
Richard R. West (term ended, effective November 1, 2007)

Under applicable securities laws, a person determined to be an audit committee financial
expert will not be deemed an “expert” for any purpose, including without limitation for the
purposes of Section 11 of the Securities Act of 1933, as a result of being designated or
identified as an audit committee financial expert. The designation or identification as an
audit committee financial expert does not impose on such person any duties, obligations, or
liabilities greater than the duties, obligations, and liabilities imposed on such person as a
member of the audit committee and board of directors in the absence of such designation or
identification.

  1 The nature of the services include assurance and related services reasonably related to the performance of the audit of
financial statements not included in Audit Fees.
2 The nature of the services include tax compliance, tax advice and tax planning.
3 The nature of the services include a review of compliance procedures and attestation thereto.

(e)(1) Audit Committee Pre-Approval Policies and Procedures:
The registrant’s audit committee (the “Committee”) has adopted policies and
procedures with regard to the pre-approval of services. Audit, audit-related and tax
compliance services provided to the registrant on an annual basis require specific pre-
approval by the Committee. The Committee also must approve other non-audit services
provided to the registrant and those non-audit services provided to the registrant’s affiliated
service providers that relate directly to the operations and the financial reporting of the
registrant. Certain of these non-audit services that the Committee believes are a) consistent
with the SEC’s auditor independence rules and b) routine and recurring services that will
not impair the independence of the independent accountants may be approved by the
Committee without consideration on a specific case-by-case basis (“general pre-approval”).
The term of any general pre-approval is 12 months from the date of the pre-approval, unless
the Committee provides for a different period. Tax or other non-audit services provided to
the registrant which have a direct impact on the operation or financial reporting of the


registrant will only be deemed pre-approved provided that any individual project does not
exceed $10,000 attributable to the registrant or $50,000 for all of the registrants the
Committee oversees. For this purpose, multiple projects will be aggregated to determine if
they exceed the previously mentioned cost levels.
Any proposed services exceeding the pre-approved cost levels will require specific
pre-approval by the Committee, as will any other services not subject to general pre-
approval (e.g., unanticipated but permissible services). The Committee is informed of each
service approved subject to general pre-approval at the next regularly scheduled in-person
board meeting. At this meeting, an analysis of such services is presented to the Committee
for ratification. The Committee may delegate to one or more of its members the authority to
approve the provision of and fees for any specific engagement of permitted non-audit
services, including services exceeding pre-approved cost levels.

(e)(2) None of the services described in each of Items 4(b) through (d) were approved by
the audit committee pursuant to paragraph (c)(7)(i)(C) of Rule 2-01 of Regulation S-X.

(f) Not Applicable

(g) Affiliates’ Aggregate Non-Audit Fees:

    Current Fiscal Year    Previous Fiscal Year 
               Entity Name    End    End 

 
 
 
BlackRock Technology Fund,         
Inc.    $288,549    $3,020,600 

       

(h) The registrant’s audit committee has considered and determined that the provision of
non-audit services that were rendered to the registrant’s investment adviser (not including
any non-affiliated sub-adviser whose role is primarily portfolio management and is
subcontracted with or overseen by the registrant’s investment adviser), and any entity
controlling, controlled by, or under common control with the investment adviser that
provides ongoing services to the registrant that were not pre-approved pursuant to paragraph
(c)(7)(ii) of Rule 2-01 of Regulation S-X is compatible with maintaining the principal
accountant’s independence.

Regulation S-X Rule 2-01(c)(7)(ii) – $287,500, 0%

Item 5 – Audit Committee of Listed Registrants – Not Applicable

Item 6 – Investments
(a) The registrant’s Schedule of Investments is included as part of the Report to
Stockholders filed under Item 1 of this form.
(b) Not Applicable due to no such divestments during the semi-annual period covered since
the previous Form N-CSR filing.

Item 7 – Disclosure of Proxy Voting Policies and Procedures for Closed-End Management
Investment Companies – Not Applicable

Item 8 – Portfolio Managers of Closed-End Management Investment Companies – Not Applicable

Item 9 – Purchases of Equity Securities by Closed-End Management Investment Company and
Affiliated Purchasers – Not Applicable


Item 10 – Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders – The registrant’s Nominating and
Governance Committee will consider nominees to the Board recommended by shareholders
when a vacancy becomes available. Shareholders who wish to recommend a nominee
should send nominations which include biographical information and set forth the
qualifications of the proposed nominee to the registrant’s Secretary. There have been no
material changes to these procedures.

Item 11 – Controls and Procedures

11(a) – The registrant’s principal executive and principal financial officers or persons performing
similar functions have concluded that the registrant’s disclosure controls and procedures (as
defined in Rule 30a-3(c) under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the
“1940 Act”)) are effective as of a date within 90 days of the filing of this report based on the
evaluation of these controls and procedures required by Rule 30a-3(b) under the 1940 Act
and Rule 15d-15(b) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.

11(b) – There were no changes in the registrant’s internal control over financial reporting (as
defined in Rule 30a-3(d) under the 1940 Act) that occurred during the second fiscal quarter
of the period covered by this report that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to
materially affect, the registrant’s internal control over financial reporting.
