Someone needs to create this

I'll just c&p this from an e-mail I sent Jane a minute ago..

ok.. 4:40 am and i'm still fairly awake.. and i'm listening to some obscure warm beautiful french music and i decide to do as i've done since i first discovered the internet and found myself awake at this time of.. night, morning? and so i watch live earthcams. i'm watching one now of paris. but it got me thinking.. i wish there was something (and maybe there will be at some point in the foreseeable future), that it would be an amazing thing to have a sort of "window" in your house that was basically a computer monitor but that was fashioned after a proper window, and on this screen, and because it's set up to a computer's hard drive, you could set up a view of a live streaming earthcam.. so that you could look out your "window" to a view of any city you wanted. i want someone to invent that so i can enjoy it. paris, oslo, national forest and mountains, london, rome, tokyo, the alps.. whatever it was you were in the mood for. and because it's in real-time and streaming.. there would action and a reality to it.

and then of course this got me going on all kinds of tangents, like being able to set up a streaming feed as your desktop wallpaper, or the background on your myspace profile, or whatever else.

yeah.. i should probably go to bed.
