Hey! Looks like the Muslim networking site You R A Creator (YRAC) is providing the insanely busy and physical unable-d Muslims a way to get their Friday Prayer on -- online!
YRAC has organized a weekly Friday khutbah and salah that is viewable and accessible to all who have internet. They are calling this fairly new endeavor Jumah Live. Jumah is the Arabic word for Friday.
If you are a member of YRAC, an automatic message will be sent to you as a reminder Friday morning. Here is what a typical message looks like:
Jumah Live Webcast Today at 2pm
Eastern Time - On YRAC TV

As Salaam Alaikum Muslims!
REMEMBER, if you can't make Jumu'ah on Friday's, perhaps because of work and/or
other responsibilities, you can watch JUMU'AH LIVE! on YRAC TV at (2pm Eastern Time). Nourished with Islamic food for thought (and action) for the week!

It would appear that this is the best way to gain the main benefit of Salatul Jumah (i.e. listening to the khutbah and praying behind and imam) if one is not able to physically to attend the prayer every week.
One does not need to be a member to 'attend' Jumah Live, however, joining the fast growing site is completely free of charge.
Happy Friday. Let's make this one count!
