We apologize for any confusion on this, there were no updates to the video.

However, thanks to Heroku's recent sponsorship, this screencast is now available to everyone. Feel free to share with your friends.

Just an FYI, Heroku does provide shell access to your application's running environment: heroku run bash.

This is just the tutorial I've been looking for, short and simple just showing what I need to know to get going with Heroku. And yeah that ending was awesome haha.

Great screencast - concise, to the point, and well paced! Feel confident and prepared to take my fledgling little app to Heroku and try it out. Thanks!

Awesome! Thanks young Dr. House.

Hey! How about a screencast for migrating an old Heroku bamboo app to cedar?

Thanks again!

OFF-TOPIC: Hi there! Newbie-at-codeschool question: how do I record screencasts like these? (I mean, face and screen at the same time) BTW, I use Ubuntu :) TIA!

I've added Jay's show notes to the resources for those of you who had a hard time following through the screencast. :-)

Great content but you are going way too fast. I had to rewind several times to understand what you are saying and to make sure I follow all the commands you are using. Please slow down on your future videos.

The ending was, like, totally obvious. Colonel Mustard with the wrench in the Library. Pffft! Of course, duh! Jay's dropping hints the whole time.

Oh, great screencast otherwise.
