This is an awesome new blogging service. I think I could really get into this. It’s especially be interesting to see how the service evolves.
I’ve been looking for a super lightweight, self-hosted, blogging tool and Calepin was recommended to me and to be honest, it looks perfect.
I’m not sure if it’s *technically* “self-hosted” or not. I guess that depends on how you define it. All of the files sit in my Dropbox account via txt files written in Markdown, the service is managed by Calepin.co and I can (although I haven’t yet) map my own domain to the blog (I will if I decide to stick with it).
It’s kind of the best of both worlds. I control as much as you possibly can without having to manage a bunch of servers. Plus this will force me to finally learn Markdown. Something I’ve been wanting to do for a while.
