Didn't get past the fourth sentence in Part 1:

It doesn’t use one-way data binding.

Probably want to reword that.

Also the first link (Things I Wish I Were Told about AngularJS) starts off with a bad example used to demonstrate ng-repeat's scope changes. Anyone reading that (at any level of AngularJS knowledge) would first pick up on the fact that it uses 'item.value' for the text input but just 'checked' for the checkbox. The example is more of a design mistake in the code than an example of ng-repeat's scope.

Just from looking this over quickly, it looks pretty good.

Will take a deeper plunge later. I like the idea of hand holding through the beginning steps. The sections are well written and seem fun/playful... gotta keep my attention.

Slick, always wanted to go through the egghead videos and this seems like it'll make it way easier. Thanks for making this.

Haven't had time to learn AngularJS yet, but it's been on my list of things to learn. Thanks! Now I have a good way to get started :)

This is very well built.

Now we just need this for iOS. Mobile development is what all the kids want to learn and build for these days.

I like how you made the heart look like the Angular 'A'. It's the little things that count.

Looks really good. A few typos here and there but I think it'd be useful. On my reading list!
