    I actually caught some of it by accident just last night.

    It's basically "open source" tv where anybody can submit a show. They call it VC2 (viewer created content). It's like a 60 minutes magazine type of format but with home movies ;-)

    Check out http://www.current.tv and http://www.current.tv/studio

    Would be nice if they streamed the content so us in the UK can see it - I can't find it on sky yet :(

    I thought Al Gore started a network called Current. One and the same?
