    <content type="html"><![CDATA[<p>So, once you make your Octopress blog, there are a ton of themes to choose from. If you&rsquo;d like to change your theme, you can find a ton by doing a simple Google search.</p>

<p><a href="https://github.com/imathis/octopress/wiki/3rd-Party-Octopress-Themes">3rd Party Octopress Themes</a></p>

<p>For example, I installed the <a href="https://github.com/ryandeussing/octopress-minimalist">Minimalist theme</a> by doing the following &mdash;</p>

<pre><code>cd octopress
git clone git://github.com/ryandeussing/octopress-minimalist.git .themes/minimalist
rake install['minimalist']
rake generate
</code></pre>

<p>Then refer to the index.html and _config.yml files to set up your site (change links, add title, and so on.)</p>

    <content type="html"><![CDATA[<p>So, as part of our first class, we had to create our own <a href="http://octopress.org/">Octopress Blog</a>. &ldquo;Octopress is a framework designed by Brandon Mathis for Jekyll, the blog aware static site generator powering Github Pages.&rdquo;</p>

<p>Settimg it up was fairly straightforward.</p>

<p>First &mdash;</p>

<pre><code>git clone git://github.com/imathis/octopress.git octopress
cd octopress
bundle install
bundle exec rake install
</code></pre>

<p>Next &mdash;</p>

<p>Set up a repo on Github named <strong>yourusername.github.io</strong></p>

<p>Then back in Terminal &mdash;</p>

<pre><code>rake setup_github_pages
rake generate
rake deploy
</code></pre>

<p>If you go to yourusername.github.io, you should see your blog! (It can take up to 10 minutes&hellip;)</p>

<p>Create a new blog post &mdash;</p>

<pre><code>rake new_post["This is the title of my first Blog post"]
</code></pre>

<p>Edit the markdown file, and then commit the changed files!</p>

<p>If at any time you want to view your blog without having to actually deploy it, you can do so by running&hellip;</p>

<pre><code>rake generate
rake preview
</code></pre>

<p>Then go to <a href="http://localhost:4000/">http://localhost:4000/</a> in your browser.</p>

<p>When your blog is looking how you&rsquo;d like it to look, simply</p>

<pre><code>rake generate
rake deploy
</code></pre>

<p>to send it off to the interwebs.</p>

<p>Ta daa!!</p>
