Couldn’t resist the temptation. Octopress templates looked so groovy. I decided to take the dive and 2 hours later, now I am typing this post on my emacs. I still have to migrate my other posts on to this blog. I will do that over this week.

Octopress is the built on Jekyll and is just really jekyll packaged and made prettier with default fonts and styles. Thank you octopress.

You have to do a ruby, gems, octopress gem installation. But once the initial installation is done, you can do all your posting on markdown. I use emacs for all my coding and editing and hence being able to type in markdown is a great advantage for me.
