Creating a Jekyll blog hosted by Github Pages
Raw
jekyll_github_pages.md

After installing Jekyll, create a repo named username.github.io in your Github account. (username is your Github username). Then go to your terminal:

➜  code  jekyll new username.github.io
➜  code  cd username.github.io
➜  code  git init
➜  code  git add .
➜  code  git commit -m 'First commit'
➜  code  git remote add origin [email protected]:username/username.github.io.git
➜  code  git push -u origin master

That's it. Github will automatically publish your site at http://username.github.io. -- Pretty cool stuff.
