Hey mate!

You wanted me to give you some words on this capture.

Photographically:
I think you've chosen a very good angle, elevated from the subject with an inspecting view, if that makes sense.
The thing I'd consider doing differently to increase the impact of the fiting title - I'd have the lighting come from a angle that would light up the upperpart of the text ("surfed"). This wouldn't change much in the scene at all and the message would become slightly more clear. I'm not saying that you shouldn't make the viewer look and think about the message, but due to the "ledge" on top of the screen you'll get a strong shadow here. That being said, this can be fixed in post-processing.

Post-processing:
As mention I'd increase the shadows in the monitor a tad to make the text come forth a little more.
And that's it <img src="e.deviantart.net/emoticons/s/s…" width="15" height="15" alt=":)" title=":) (Smile)"/>

Summary:
You've created a iconic capture here. And I envy your creativity <img src="e.deviantart.net/emoticons/s/s…" width="15" height="15" alt=":)" title=":) (Smile)"/>

Hope this was helpful, eventhough it was short <img src="e.deviantart.net/emoticons/s/s…" width="15" height="15" alt=":)" title=":) (Smile)"/>
