Incidentally, I just finished watching the series 'Steins;Gate', where the characters' discovered ability to send text messages to the past becomes a focal plot point of the show. Needless to say, I didn't understand what the title here was talking about.

edit: Oh right, another significant plot point is the Large Hadron Collider, also featured on the front page right now.

The anime also features crossing worldlines (their version of parallel worlds). I've forgotten how the "mad scientist" crossed worldlines.

Also, features sending of memories/knowledge into the past - their first step into time travel.

The first thing I thought of when reading this was Steins;Gate. Such a good show. Especially with the OVA and extra episode.
