Grad student Jamal Albarghouti's cell-phone video from the Virginia Tech campus was viewed more than 900,000 times on CNN.com by 3:14 p.m. Monday. A network veep says: "Let's face it, right now, his material is still the best of the day in terms of capturing on video what took place there. User-generated words and pictures have always been part of the culture of CNN, and now you have these kids today who are pretty savvy - and very good at navigating the technology of cell phones and digital cameras."
