CCC Google+ Hangout

by Shane Arthur on May 2, 2012

Hey all. I was just wondering if anybody would be interested in having a CCC Google+ Hangout. I’m thinking we could have one once per week, perhaps on the weekend. Let me know in the comments what you all think of this. I’ve done some hangouts, but I’m not sure how many people it can hold. Let me know what times would be good for you. I think it would be cool if we just hung out and talked CCC and writing and such.
