Let's try this again
I’ve tried blogging before, but always stop after a few days. This time, it’s different!
Here’s why:
- Jekyll: Low friction way to quickly and eaisly create a blog with support for categories, tags and pagination. I’m using Jekyll Bootstrap, which adds an extra layer of convenience over standard Jekyll.
- Markdown: Easily write up articles without messing around with HTML tags
- GitHub pages: Low friction way to host a blog, deploy new articles and update existing ones. Simply type
git push
and you’re done. - Disqus: Easily add commenting support to static websites. Widely supported commenting platform. Your visitors likely already have accounts. This comes built into JB.
- More content: I have a lot more to talk about than the last time. / Moral of the story: Keep it simple, silly. Make it as easy as possible to do something and it’ll get done.
Cheers
