The slide deck doesn't have a lot along the lines of subtext or narration (I hate reading off of slides). If you're lost, go check out Rob Pike's 2012 Go Concurrency Patterns presentation. I used most of his content/patterns and adapted it to the audience.

I had a contrived+simplified example of a LockManager that locks resources identified by name. It's in the 'lockmanager' directory. I'm not particularly happy with this as an example, but it's a pretty simple example that pulled together what we had learned.

• tour.golang.org - Learn & Write Go code right in your browser.
• Go Docs - Pretty straight forward docs in Go.
• play.golang.org - Write arbitrary Go code (no network I/O, nothing that runs longer than 30s).
• Web frameworks in Go (there's a bunch, search around)
  • beego - I like this one's style
  • revel - Less of a fan, but it's effective. Go
