Google’s Oscar site includes a little bit of everything from a variety of their services. You can find the list of nominees in various categories like Best Actor, Best Movie, Best Director, Best Original Score and so on. Google’s Knowledge Graph presents information about your selection along with trailers and showtimes for movies. Next you can find Google’s guesses for award winners based on their search volume.

Users can also be a part of the action by casting a sample ballot via the official Oscars Android app once they have viewed the movie trailers. The Oscars Google Plus page provides steady updates about the event. What if you won an Oscar? Google Plus Hangouts let you capture your moving acceptance speech and share it with your friends. Or just host a pre-Oscar Hangout with friends to discuss who will win the prized golden statuettes this year.
