You didn't mention the module dependency in the PDF ( line 58 )

Not a huge deal, and maybe not worth the time to fix, but it's probably a pretty well trafficked page, and I personally learned a lot from it.

Line 34 is still showing wrong on the article that links to this.

It shows:

if (Url) this.backendUrl = newUrl;

but should be as in this snippet:

if (newUrl) this.backendUrl = newUrl;

And if you're in there fixing stuff, the wrong "two" is used in this sentence. ;-)

Unlike the previous to methods, we'll set the injectables in a defined this.$get() function definition.
