I decided I like octopress. It’s a framework for blogging with jekyll. It’s not simple to set up, especially since I want to use org-mode to write posts and pages, but after I got it all set up it’s pretty nice.
octopress sets up rake tasks to build new pages and new posts, and can generate and deploy your blog over git, rsync, or heroku. If you’re careful, you can make your site use relative links and set up a preview on your own machine.
The system has a lot of moving parts, but if you read the documentation carefully, you can get it all working. I’ll post an article on the org-mode integration later.
