If you're worried about the domain github.blog, be aware it's what blog.github.com redirects to. I really hate what's happened with TLDs, but at least this one is verifiable.

This seems to be recently new. Early this morning the Github blog hadn't been updated yet.

Hi! Thanks for clarifying this for everyone. Yes, we just migrated the blog, so both `github.blog` and `blog.github.com` work. (I'm the open source PM at GitHub, for context... and yes I realize that's not directly verifiable from my sn here so feel free to tweet at me if you want to check: http://twitter.com/devonzuegel http://twitter.com/devonzuegel)

  Hey, that reminds me about Keybase. It's not talked about that much anymore, as far as I can see, but it's nice how it lets you verify your identity across different sites.

  Hey Devon, not to worry. I follow you on Twitter! Congrats on the new gig. :)

At FastMail, when we moved from our old in-house blog engine to Ghost(Pro), we moved from blog.fastmail.com to fastmail.blog, because the blog engine was being run by a third party, and if it was at blog.fastmail.com then we’d be giving our *.fastmail.com authentication cookies to said third party. So it was always going to have to be a different domain; then it’s just a matter of fastmail.blog being nicer than fastmailblog.com.
