Polyglotconf ad-hoc "intro to node.js" talk

Polyglotconf intro to node.js

If you're interested in learning more in person, VanJS (@vanjs) often has node-related content.

And like Rob and Brock mentioned in the session, they're starting up the Vancouver Node Brigade (@NodeBrigade) for a more node-focused meetup.

Now, as promised, links from the session and some expanded notes. All questions, comments, and pull requests are most welcome.
