Reason #1: I want to be able to write blogs even when I don’t have an internet connection

• Git solves this problem.“Most operations in Git only need local files and resources to operate…”
  
  I actually already attempted last year to transfer my blog to GitHub but I have choosen not to use it this time because it has a weird name (just like my current blog – refer to reason #4 below); and a friend of mine, Joash Tubaga, suggested that using “jboy” for a name sounds childish; I should be using my real name. And I was convinced.

Reason #2: I want to be able to use emojis in my blog

Reason #3: Writing code on GitHub flavored Markdown is simpler

• JavaScript code

    function test() {
        console.log("test");
    }
  

• C# code

    using System;
  
    public class Circle : Shape
    {
        private double radius;
  
        public Circle(double radius)
        {
            this.radius = radius;
        }
  
        public double Radius
        {
            get { return this.radius;}
            set { this.radius = value;}
        }
  
        override public double ComputeArea() 
        { 
            return Math.PI * Math.Pow(radius, 2);
        }
    }
  

Reason #4: My current blog has a weird name

• jboyflaga2.blogspot.com. Yes! With a “2” at the end. It sounds unprofessional.
  
  You want to know the reason why there is a “2” in there?? It is because the one without the “2” is already taken. I believe I was the one who made that blog years ago but I already deleted the google account assoiciated with it. But even if I did not delete it, I already forgot the password.
  
  But my first blog, jeremiahflaga.blogspot.com, already uses my real name… only that reasons #1, #2, & #3 prevents me from using it also.
  
  (I also attempted to create a blog named teacherjboy.blogspot.com, but its name sounds very controversial. I cannot continue using it.)
