I'm not entirely sure how useful this is for anyone else. Also, it's not really a 'social' service integration. However, I wanted to be able to easily add a blog component to my site without having to mess with a database, etc.

Kudos to Logr where most of this code originated.

- You can now use the 'markdown' template tag in the templates to automatically
  convert markdown to html.
- The markdown parsing, ideas, etc. are solely adapted from the great Logr
  project, https://github.com/BrewerHimself/Logr.
- I just took that project, converted the views to django views, and placed it
  into syte as a configurable option.
- There will now be a 'blog' link in the main navigation that will show all
  available markdown articles.
    - Articles are automatically parsed from the syte/articles/ directory.  So
      you can put any markdown files in this directory and links will
      automatically be generated for these posts in the main blog page.
    - You can also include 'pages' in the syte/pages directory.  For example,
      the main blog page (/blog/ url) is a listing of all the articles by
      category and the contents of the syte/pages/FrontPage.md file.

Conflicts:

	syte/urls.py
- There is no image included for this feature yet.  As I assumed all the images
  should be consistent and from the same account.

That's really cool because I don't want to use Tumblr.
I think a lot of people would agree with that choice.

I'd like to just point to a github repo with posts in markdown format.

I would love to see this integrated into Syte's core. I don't want a hosted blog at Tumblr or WordPress--I want to host my own. Having a Markdown blog is exactly what I want. Please consider integrating this again.

since this doesnt break the 'no database required' philosophy, can we look at getting this merged in @rigoneri ?
