October Ch1Con Chat Recap + POLL

Thanks to everyone who joined us for last night’s Ch1Con Chat! If you missed the shenanigans, you can watch the recording below. (Protip: Skip the first twenty five minutes to avoid the worst of the night’s technical difficulties.) (Google+ hates all that is good in the world.)

The next Ch1Con Chat will take place Thursday, November 6th at 8:00 PM eastern. (And hopefully will involve far fewer tech probs.) Want to help us decide the topic of November’s chat? Vote in the poll below!

Thanks again!
