director, and the other co-host, of CSF 2015) were at a computer in Chennai. They conversed with each other, and

regarding how to join a "Google Hangout On Air" videoconference for
the first time: If possible, please use Google Chrome, or
Safari. For this process, it seems one needs to have
a gmail ID. If you might not already have a gmail ID,
perhaps you could create one. Please open your gmail page. To accept an invitation to join a Google
Hangout videoconference for the first time: On the upper right corner of your gmail page,
there may be an image of a bell. If you might NOT see an image of a bell, look
for a 3x3 set of squares in this same area of the
page (the upper right corner). If you locate this 3x3 set of squares, click
on it. Then click on "Google+". You would be
guided to join "Google+". Once you might join, it seems a bell might
then be visible. If you might see an image of a bell, click on
it. Then you might see the invitation to join a Google
Hangout videoconference. Click on the invitation, and you would be
asked to join Google Hangout. Follow the instructions
regarding how to do so. You may be asked to download a
plug-in. Finally, hopefully, you would be prompted to
accept the invitation, and you would enter the
videoconference. ______________________________ And -- To initiate a "Google Hangout On
Air" (a videoconference that is webcasted for
