One movie that recently aroused my curiosity and interest is the movie Simone. It’s about a virtual actress that takes Hollywood, the entertainment industry and the rest of the world by storm. The storyline alone is already very intriguing. Although there have been several movies where virtual characters are used, this is the first movie I know of that actually takes the virtual world concept and makes it the highlight of the film.

                    [Summary] => Cellular phones, aside from being ubiquitous communication devices, can also be considered extensions of their users’ personality.

(First of two parts)

One movie that recently aroused my curiosity and interest is the movie Simone. It’s about a virtual actress that takes Hollywood, the entertainment industry and the rest of the world by storm. The storyline alone is already very intriguing. Although there have been several movies where virtual characters are used, this is the first movie I know of that actually takes the virtual world concept and makes it the highlight of the film.

                    [Summary] => Cellular phones, aside from being ubiquitous communication devices, can also be considered extensions of their users’ personality. Handset manufacturers have made it a point to create fashion-friendly phones that can be accessorized and whose casings can be changed to suit users’ moods and attitudes. 


An entire aftermarket industry for handset accessories such as covers, casings, colored backlights and headsets, ranging from the stylish to the gaudy, fuels this personalization mania.
