Hello World
I want to use this blog for sharing my thoughts. Being a Programmer, it’s mostly going to be technical stuff I guess. But you would surprised to know how random my thoughts can be.
I have been seeing lots of sites created using Jekyll and Github Pages these days. After giving it a try, I liked it and I created this site. I think people in Technical fields will like it. Because it’s some technical things involved.
If you don’t know how it works, there are some good resources out there.

- Build A Blog With Jekyll And GitHub Pages by Barry Clark
There are lots of Jekyll themes out there too if you don’t want to style your blog yourself. I chose whiteglass.
What’s next? A blog needs to have commenting and some analytics. After whiteglass took care of Google analytics, I just had to plug Disqus for commenting. It’s like using microservices.
I guess I am all set for now. Here we go.

Actually I was facing some issues in making this blog live on hussaintamboli.github.io. @Yous (the author of whiteglass) helped me out.
