I tend to keep things scattered across multiple media (lots on github), and collecting up everything in a 'useful' way isn't very efficient.  I've considered making better use of github markdown, but I'm not sure thats the best way to go for all projects, particularly if I want to post a lot of images.

For the moment I'm just looking for something simple where I can 'publish' projects a bit better than just posting code or KiCAD designs on github.  Eventually I might branch out to this new fangled social media stuff...but for the moment I just want to get the projects written up and posted.
