Al Gore recently won an Emmy Award for interactive television for his Current TV network. The network features a mix of professionally produced and viewer submitted content. It's almost like the Cable TV version of YouTube. Gore says that we live in a world where viewers want to be in control of their media. Whether the Current TV model is actually what one would call "Interactive TV" is probably debatable. Just because there's a network devoted to running home movies, like a 24 hour Funniest Home Videos, and I can see see the next Star Wars Kid video on Cable doesn't necessarily mean I'm in control, or I can interact with it, but evidently the Academy believes it is.
