I've just moved my blog over to Pelican, a static blog generator that takes in reStructuredText and spits out, well, this! I'm now using Disqus for commenting, too.

The main motivations for the move (apart from slightly better theming) were to escape dynamic-blog-land in favor of static-blog-land, while enabling a better commenting setup. Pelican+disqus looked like a great solution; we'll see how it goes!

One note -- rather than hack and slash my way through disqus's commenting system upload fail, I just attached all of the comments as "legacy comments" on old blog entries. Yeah, it sucks, sorry.
