 HCC introduced several innovations into the world of "live" capping, including chat, the ability to vote for your favorite captions, archiving all caps, posting captions in the order they were made rather than sorted by atomic weight, blind capping, handle graphics, and not testing new features at all before they go live. HCC also gives users the ability to caption any and all past programming from the catalog, just in case they missed Kolchak the last time it was on and don't want to wait another twenty minutes.
