【The Intern - A Summer of Lust】

Tired of social media sites taking up your precious screen real estate?The Intern - A Summer of Lust Japan's Elsonic (a sub-brand of Nojima) has got you covered.

The Elsonic EK-MD088 (via Gizmodo) is a small vertical display that seems tailor-made for endless scrolling through a Twitter or Facebook feed — and nothing else.

Measuring just 8.8 inches diagonally, and with a 420x1920 pixels, the EK-MD088 will snugly display a social media feed — or perhaps some other long and narrow piece of content, though we struggle to think of any. It comes with a stand, a mini-HDMI port, and a USB-C port for power delivery.

It's one of those gadgets that seems to be built just for one purpose, though you do have to wonder whether you could spend a similar amount of money for a standard-sized monitor which can fit a lot more content. Then again, it just wouldn't be the same thing, would it?
