Passengers on the crippled Jet Blue jet watched themselves flying around LA on live in-seat Direct TV yesterday. We all watched them land; live. It was a gift to TV executives like CBS's Les Moonves.The only thing missing was a direct live link to the  someone on board who was videotaping the flight and landing.  (consumer becomes creator)  But soon wireless connections, internet and cell phones will all be on planes. So next time is it network split screens with on board footage and live action outside simultanously? That would be a rival to Gulf War 1 missiles being launched and us watching them arrive; or Gulf War 2 journalistic imbeds describing live war action.

Remarkable how much more we expect to see, and understand, about every event today.
