Utilizing twitter, he sent out a tweet with a link to where people could view his stream. Interacting with the audience of over 700, he gave a quick tour of the plane from his seat, showed his viewers his neighbor and the view from his window.

A very cool interactive experience which shows that the Internet is becoming more ubiquitous all the time.
