Using Jekyll

Hi my friends! Recently I have migrated my blog (this one you are reading from Wordpress.com to Jekyll + GitHub pages).

I really like how easy is to modify your content, format or just to publish a new post on the blog. With wordpress.com, one of the problems I had was to find an easy way to elaborate a post including content, images, formatting everything properly and so on.

One option was to use wordpress.com web interface or else some 3rd party tools like the ones considered here Wordpress.com Blogging Tools.

With the new approach using Jekyll and hosted on GitHub pages, I can just open my favourite text editor (or a markdown editor to make it easier) and just generate my content, easily add links or images and just commit to my github to have it published on my blog.

I am really liking this new way of blogging and I would like to thank @dottorblaster as thank to his blog, I discovered the Jekyll world ;)
