It's brief but I rather enjoyed this piece -
A Brief Look at Texting and the Internet in Film. As you would suspect, it's about how films have evolved over time to showcase how we receive information without being
quite so literal by showing the actual device. It's certainly an interesting problem and definitely not one that has been solved for showing off the Internet (though I stand by
this depiction as hilariously accurate). Turns out, Asian cinema is leading the way when it comes to experimental and interesting ways of showing life online - no surprise there.
