Wordpress is dead. Long live Jekyll!

I’m going to start shutting down the old srvthe.net server, and I’ve already done away with the old wordpress server. It feels really good not to be runnyn any more php. This site is now being hosted on github.io (ie, fastly). It took me a while to import the old posts and set up the redirects, but was surprisingly easy given the number of great resources out there.

For anyone looking to set up a simple blog I highly recommend Github.io + Jekyll.

Interesting side note - I found out when I was almost done deploying the site that Jekyll uses Liquid, which was actually created by the CEO of Shopify, the company where I currently work.
