Hello World: Trying To Figure Out Jekyll

Hello World.

Trying to figure out Jekyll is both easy and hard. As I get the hang of it, I am liking it, but I do wish the learning curve was a bit easier.

Overall I really like the idea of a dynamically generated static site creator. It is a very smart idea, and being able to make use of it directly through GitHub with GitHub Pages is even better.
