Over the years I have been trying to find a magic connection to GitHub. It seems too good a resource to not use in some first class way. Here are a few of my GitHub reading and writing projects.#
publishScriptingOpml -- A simple server that copies scripting.com's OPML to the instantOutlines project on GitHub, when pinged. #
github -- The source for the davegithub package that reads and writes to and from GitHub. #
oldSchoolNightly -- A script that runs on the same machine as my CMS, that uploads JSON, OPML, RSS and HTML files from Scripting News to the repository on GitHub, every night. #
githubpub -- A Node app that serves from GitHub repositories over the web. #
opmlToGitHub -- A Node app that reads an OPML file, converts it to Markdown, and uploads it to GitHub. #
pagepark -- My general-purpose Node web server can serve from a GitHub repo. That's how the xmlrpc.com and pagepark.io sites work. #
english -- An editor that runs in the browser that can create and edit a Markdown document in a GitHub repository.#

You know those obnoxious sites that pop up dialogs when they think you're about to leave, asking you to subscribe to their email newsletter? Well that won't do for Scripting News readers who are a discerning lot, very loyal, but that wouldn't last long if I did rude stuff like that. So here I am at the bottom of the page quietly encouraging you to sign up for the nightly email. It's got everything from the previous day on Scripting, plus the contents of the linkblog and who knows what else we'll get in there. People really love it. I wish I had done it sooner. And every email has an unsub link so if you want to get out, you can, easily -- no questions asked, and no follow-ups. Go ahead and do it, you won't be sorry! :-)
