title: Getting an API key to use with Google Cloud Messaging
body: <p>I am developing an Android app and I'd like to start testing out push notifications.  From a code perspective, I'm all set.  My current challenge is that I simply do not know how to get a Google Cloud Messaging API key from Google.</p>
  
  <p>There are loads and loads of tutorials and videos online showing how this can be done in about 10 seconds but Google has recently updated it's <a href="https://cloud.google.com/console" rel="noreferrer">developer center</a> and none of the tutorials seem to apply any more.  The current process seems very cumbersome and not at all similar to what I've seen online.</p>
  
  <p>I realize that this barely passes as a programming question (if at all) but there is no way that I'm going to even begin to be able to develop anything without an API key from Google.</p>
  
  <p>Is someone able to point me in the right direction?</p>
