My "Current" guilty pleasure.. the Current channel. Totally random "news" and info out there. Everything ranging from male belly dancing to legalized medical marijuana generated through peer-to-peer (hmmm... where have I heard that before? (scratch head) ) networking. Here's what they say about themselves...

about current

Since its inception in 2005, Emmy award-winning Current TV has been the world's leading peer-to-peer news and information network. Current is the only 24/7 cable and satellite television network and Internet site produced and programmed in collaboration with its audience....with what is going on in their world, from their perspective, in their own voices.
...
Current pioneered the television industry's leading model of interactive viewer created content (VC2). Comprising roughly one-third of Current's on-air broadcast, this content is submitted via short-form, non-fiction video "pods". Viewer Created Ad Messages (VCAMs) are also open to viewer's participation.

I think it's awesome fun!
