What's up with using github as a blog? Now when I see a link that says github, instead of classifying as "might be interesting code" I have to think "might be a personal rant"?
I get that its an experiment; and I think it's a moderately clever idea... I just like that github is all about the code. If this becomes popular, I think github needs to roll blogging into their site as a feature so that it can sit in a separate namespace than code projects.
- sant0sk1 17y agoI don't think we have to worry too much about this becoming popular, especially since GitHub pages allows for git-based blogging from your own domain. Also, raganwald's blog is usually all about code, which is why he set it up on GitHub to begin with. This seems to be a deviation from the norm.

- dasil003 17y agoDon't look a gift horse in the mouth. Personally, raganwald is a much better writer than me, so I look forward to the opportunity to fork his blog and claim it under my own namespace.
