Do you mean instead of the old cable line for tv, use fiber optic cable? is there such a thing?

I remember reading about it a year ago. People in NY could look in to a fiber cable that was magnified and see people in Europe and they could see the people in NY. Does any one know of this?
Never heard of it. we have web cams for that now :/
I remember seeing it on the Today show. It was difficult to find, but I think I've finally got it!
From a distance, it looks as if one of Jules Verne's imagined flying contraptions has crashed in to the South Bank of the Thames. Next to Tower Bridge, the massive brown-and-gold item pokes up from the walkway, like the front end of a B-movie UFO – or perhaps some part of a ship's hull from 200 years ago – winning weird looks from passers-by. is it a plane? is it a time machine?
No, it's the Telectroscope, the wacky, wonderful invention of British artist Paul St. George. the story: mr. St. George happened upon a stack of dusty papers in his grandmother's attic, which revealed that his great-grandfather – an eccentric Victorian engineer – had planned to bore a 3,471-mile tunnel from London to new York, allowing us Brits to gawk at you Yanks through the world's longest telescope. Now, St. George has made his great-gramp's dream a reality.
The truth is…Here's a device, connected to London by a fiber-optic cable running under the Atlantic, that allows new Yorkers to peer back at their British counterparts, to gawp, wave, laugh, make funny faces, and hold up white boards bearing salutations and cross cultural commentary. Here, in short, is a glorified, double-sided webcam, dressed in Victorian-era whimsy. but at the base of the Telelectroscope on the Fulton Ferry Pier in Brooklyn, dozens of adults are pressing their faces wildly against the glass, jostling for a spot at the front of the line, laughing, giggling, and shrieking.
whew! that was hard to find!!
