Create a blog that is based on Express and publish it to Heroku/OpenShift or similar.
- Create a free account in the given hosting provider and setup SSH keys
- Create a repository at GitHub that is used for the development of the blog
- Publish the blog by pushing it to the provider, such as
git push heroku master
- Profit...?
While doing the task, find out whether to use existing blogging tool or create your own with Express.
