First community courses!

Hey everyone,

I’ve been meaning to write a longer blog post to explain our new direction - but as often happens with ‘longer blog posts’ it’s taking… a long time ;).

So we’ve decided to start offering courses in the community on technical topics on our platform. To do the live class portion we’re integrating Google+ Hangouts which allows for live video, screensharing, and document collaboration. It’s a pretty cool experience. 

We have announced two courses, starting next week. The first is “Learn to build a sexy website”, which explains the fundamentals of web development and uses Wordpress as an example project which you customize and learn from. The second is “Beginner Rails”, targeted at beginners who want to learn the basics of Rails and be able to put together a simple web app. 

They are both listed on our home page: http://www.matygo.com

The Wordpress course is already full and there is only 1 spot left in the Rails course. 

Look for more to come!
