After the expiration of ruiwu.me, I’m looking for a new cheap solution for my personal blog. The original AWS EC2 & Wordpress solution is a little bit expensive for individuals and I know one of my friend Zhaoyu is using a Github & Jekyll solution.

So you can find lots of instructions for set up a blog on github. Here gives the outline and some links I used.
