go to http://www.github.com/rubyonrailstutor/bengaltigers and click 'fork' in the top right corner, then follow the instructions to fork the repo to your own github profile
then grab the url of the newly forked repo, clone it locally, make sure to clone your fork, not the original :)
cd bengaltigers
note, that for github pages, we will always work from the gh-pages branch, not master, if you need to git checkout -b gh-pages :)

jekyll serve -w

open 2014-03-05-cohort-session-log.md and add your feedback to my questions under your name
since we are using .md, that means "markdown" and you can use github flavored markdown syntax

save, git add . -A, git commit -m "your commit message"
git push origin gh-pages
at this point, you will have pushed the branch to your own fork of the bengaltigers repository, which lives on the rubyonrailstutor github user account, we now want to issue a pull request.
