I love this in-the-making moment of the closing act of the 2011 Tony Awards hosted by Neil Patrick Harris -- forever known to me as Doogie, was absolutely brilliant. It was an end show rap or riff on the doings and winners.
As a writer, I'm amazed at how this was done -- on-the-fly, backstage just winging it. Talent wins here. It's that good. Kudos to writers Lin-Manuel Miranda and Tommy Kail, and of course, Mr. Harris aka Doogie.
And this is the performance as it was seen by those in the audience, and at home.
The intersection of TV, the internet and social media -- how it all makes money and sense.

I'm just blown away by what Hammer's doing here. He gets that storytelling and social media, telling a story around a message is the way to do business. I'm down.
