A better approach is github(jekyll) + org-publish. I run my blog http://www.codeherb.com http://www.codeherb.com with it. Source at https://github.com/anisaraf/anisaraf.github.com https://github.com/anisaraf/anisaraf.github.com . It can take some time to set up - depending on your emacs experience. Once set up, it is relatively painless to publish articles(it still doesn't mean that I blog as much as I would like to :P).
- felideon 15y agoHmm, looks interesting. How did you set that up? Pretty much http://orgmode.org/worg/org-tutorials/org-jekyll.html http://orgmode.org/worg/org-tutorials/org-jekyll.html ?
- codeherb 15y agoYep - mostly followed that I think. Once you set up a basic blog, then you can keep tweaking things over time. Get a simple version up and running and then tweak as per your liking. The nice thing about spending the time setting it up is that once it's all done it is really quick to publish. All you do is create your post in org mode, Alt-x org-publish and then git push, and your post is live! I tried posterous before this, but getting all the syntax highlighting/formatting right was just a pain. With emacs + git, everything flows smoothly. In my opinion, well worth the time it took to set things up.
- felideon 15y agoHeh not sure if you followed my profile and found my blog, but that's exactly why I am looking for an alternative. It really improved when they added Markdown support[1], but Common Lisp isn't a supported language. Also, embedded gists display horribly on aggregated blogs. Thanks for the tip.
