One of my best informants has whispered to me a startling rumor. You may wish to pay attention because this is the same source who gave me the tip some months ago about wireless data feed from PC to television. You may have noticed that Apple Inc. (NASDAQ: AAPL) just introduced a nice consumer friendly version of that concept.

This time, the rumor is a bit more powerful. It involves General Electric Co.'s (NYSE: GE) NBC taking interactive television to a whole new level. If you thought that American Idol was something to brag about as far as viewer involvement, you'd best hold on to your hat because if some form of what I'm about to reveal to you comes to pass, televised entertainment shall never be the same.

What's even more exciting is that this possibility presents the opportunity to create powerful cooperation between current televised programming dynamics and the explosive internet video venues such as Google Inc.'s (NASDAQ: GOOG) YouTube. The two media could come to mutually benefit from these scenarios. Neither the new standard nor the old guard would need bow to the other. Now, here's some faceting of the concept.
