Checklist: Markdown Conversion

(spawned via discussion on #23)

Due to the conversion from Blogger, a lot of the posts are still in HTML format, which can cause problems:

• The formatting will be off
• They show as one long string of HTML
• Other considerations (images, code samples, etc.) have not been covered.

So we'll try to knock these out one at a time in the order of priority, since the site is live.

What we need to do for each post

When converting a post, you'll need to:

• Rename the post file from .html to .md
• HTML formatting to markdown formatting
• Save images to assets/images/posts and reference them from there
• Mark all code samples in markdown and indicate the language
• Revise to clean up in another ways as necessary
• Use {{ site.baseurl }}{% post_url 2010-07-21-name-of-post %} for links between posts
• Use ![My helpful screenshot]({{ "/assets/screenshot.jpg" | absolute_url }}) for linking to images.

We prefer many small PRs here, so tackle one or two posts at a time, and then check that post off on the list.
