Set up & use PubSub with Python

We're going to enable Google Cloud Platform's Pub/Sub API and write a publisher and a subscriber in Python. Then we're going to allow for more than just string data to be sent.

Something to keep in mind is that Pubsub is almost always a nice-to-have. It's not a necessity. We use it to build a workflow with websites and cloud hosting, passing messages between services that otherwise don't talk to each other. Pubsub's great at storing our topic messages and letting cloud functions trigger and fire to keep a workflow running.

Timestamps:
0:00 - intro
0:28 - enable Pub/Sub
1:34 - create a service account
2:40 - Python publisher
4:06 - Python subscriber
6:04 - pass non-string data
