|
||||
[NoteHub](http://notehub.org) is a free and hassle-free pastebin for one-off markdown publishing.
|
||||
|
||||
NoteHub was an one-app-one-language [experiment](http://notehub.org/2012/6/16/how-notehub-is-built) and is implemented entirely in [Clojure](http://clojure.org) (ClojureScript).
|
||||
The [source code](https://github.com/chmllr/NoteHub) can be found on GitHub.
|
||||

## Why?
|
||||
Not every person, who occasionally wants to express some thoughts, needs a blog.
|
||||
Blogs are __tedious__ for writers and for readers.
|
||||
As readers we are not interested in every thought of other random people.
|
||||
As writers, we know, that everything rotates nowadays around social networks and not individual blogs.
|
||||
It's easier to publish something somewhere and to share the link with the audience on the community or social network of choice, than to maintain a blog trying to keep the readers interested.
|
||||
|
||||
__NoteHub__ should be the place, where you can publish your thoughts without hassle.
|
||||
|
||||
## How to Use?
|
||||
First, create [a new page](http://notehub.org/new) using the [Markdown syntax](http://daringfireball.net/projects/markdown/).
|
||||
When the note is published, you'll see a subtle panel at the bottom of the screen.
|
||||
From this panel you can go to a rudimentary statistics of the article, or you can export the original markdown, or copy the short url of the note.
|
||||
Besides this, you also can invert the color scheme by appending to the note url ([example](http://notehub.org/2012/6/16/how-notehub-is-built?theme=dark)):
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
notehub.org/.../title?theme=dark
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
The same way you can specify a [Google Web Font](http://www.google.com/webfonts/) for headers by appending to the note url:
|
||||
|
||||
notehub.org/.../title?header-font=FONT-NAME
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
and for the text itself:
|
||||
|
||||
notehub.org/.../title?header-font=FONT-NAME&text-font=FONT-NAME2
