In order to allow for us to post more general information, not just tutorials, we should update the jekyll templates to be more vague, call them "resources". We can also update the language on the home page.

Looks like Parker uploaded his screencast of the presentation last night!

Would be cool to add this as an iframe to the tutorial. @christyheaton want to take a crack at this? Embed code looks like:

<iframe 
  width="560" 
  height="315" 
  src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/iY8eXAjjp_Y" 
  frameborder="0" 
  allowfullscreen>
</iframe>

I would play around the width/height to make it work with our website.

let's get something put together!

Considering using the first geocode_on_load.html as the boilerplate example...

Or maybe call out explicitly that they must include jquery

@keum suggested some URL updates:

• Under Census Geocoding API heading, towards the end you talk about Cross Origin Issues (looks like you forgot to add the link or probably going to add the link later tonight , found this link explains it little more but might be overkill.. https://jvaneyck.wordpress.com/2014/01/07/cross-domain-requests-in-javascript/ )
• also right below that where you say "Take a look at the Census page with more information...." maybe this link might be helpful to folks http://geocoding.geo.census.gov/geocoder/Geocoding_Services_API.pdf , I know it's in pdf format but was helpful explaining other parameters.

@keum if you're interested in updating these yourself, you can edit the tutorial post here directly on github (like the cugos site) by adding markdown hyperlinks [link text](link url) and committing the changes (I think it will create a pull request, so don't worry about breaking anything). I'll get to these later, but figured I'd give you a chance :)

Link our presentation materials to the website.

Using this issue to track our work/progress on the tutorial for 4/2
