In this video Steve Citron-Pousty shows you everything you need to know to develop applications that leverage MongoDB's geospatial capabilities.  He'll show you how to get this all done on Red Hat's OpenShift PaaS so there won't be any servers to configure or install to get going. This a longish technical how-to video for developers. If you just want the high-level stuff and none of the command-line and tech demo, hang in there until about the 6 minute mark.
