> cd go; cd src; cd github.com; cd jrockway; cd project; is kind of a lot of typing to get to the thing you're working on. I have a bash alias to get there

In addition to your bash alias for navigation, you can use the `autocd` option of bash so that from your home directory you can say `cd /project`.

You can also use the CDPATH variable for quick navigation into a deep directory structure like that.
