Yesterday, Richard Burt <rburt@english.ufl.edu> called attention to a 
New Yorker cartoon by Roz Chast "The I.M.s of Romeo and Juliet (Romeo 
and Juliet chat via Instant Messenger)."

He further noted that it could be viewed with other Shakespeare inspired 
New Yorker cartoons online at Cartoonbank.com.

Among those I found the one with the movie executive on the phone 
pitching a new film idea: "You'll love it! It's a tale told by an 
idiot." For those who may not know the artist was Bernard Schoenbaum, a 
prolific contributor to the New Yorker and brother of Sam. Of his close 
to 350 cartoon that appeared in the New Yorker, this is the only one 
with a Shakespeare theme.
