Github Gists
Created:
Gist – <http://gist.github.com/> is a small code hosting service provided by github. It is a convenient place to store:
- one-off scripts
- snippets of code that is reusable.
- Short HOW-TO notes that can save you time the next time around
- Funny, memorable, poignant texts that you got as a forward etc.,
See my Gist Index and this is a better index (gist.aviperl.me), to see rendered files.
