After hearing about Netlify on Syntax.fm for months, I finally tried it out and its amazing.

I connected my git repo to my netlify account, told it which repo I wanted to use for my site, and hit go. Within minutes it built out my website and had it running at a URL for me. I pointed my DNS over, and after a few minutes my new blog was up and running, with free HTTPS from Netlify. I didn't even have to do anything, as soon as my DNS was confirmed, Netlify automatically set up an SSL certificate for me.
