This Blog was created using Jekyll Now repository on Github, as starting point. It is a very good point to get started with personal blogs. Using only static pages in the blog makes it comparatively faster than other Micro Blogging sites which uses Databases.
The best way to get started with a personal blog is to fork the above repository or one of the custom themes as mentioned Here. Next one can update their site name, avatar and other options using the _config.yml file in the root of the repository (shown below).

The easiest way to make your first post is to go into /_posts/ and update the Hello World markdown file. For more instructions head over to the Jekyll Now repository on GitHub.
