So Irish Elvis had this great idea to have an awards show and roundtable discussion on Google+ using the Hangouts on Air feature. Fantastic idea, I thought, I’ve done hangouts before, I just have to link it up to the HLS G+ page and we are good.
All that was left was for me to send out the invites and then this happened:

Apparently, Google likes to hide everyone’s invites on profile pages instead of, you know, actually trying to notify them. So it took a while for us to both fight through it and figure it out.
Once we finally did, we got something going. We had the awards, talked some Notre Dame football, drank a lot, and just had a good time:

Thanks to everyone that tuned in. We will have to do things like this again in some fashion in the future now that we know how this (sort of) works.

The Dixie Domer performance was one of my favorite moments this season. Love the recaps, look forward to them next year.
