#3Should I trust the "untrusted certificate" screen?
Developer of Jekyllhub here: our SSL cert is trusted by every other browser; only Mozilla seems to have a problem with them. I'm working it out with my provider, and if nothing else I'll get a new cert this weekend.
Thanks for your feedback!

#4How can I add new navigation elements and pages to my JekyllHub? The UI needs a bit of work, because I've been searching for a while and can't find that setting anywhere. :(
Loving the service though, posting is real simple and the syntax highlighting is amazing!
Another thing I can't find it how to enable comments. I'd be fine with Disqus or any other 3rd party comment provider.
How about Google Analytics as well? How can I see which posts are being viewed?

Cross-posted from our Facebook Timeline:
Jekyllhub is based on Jekyll, which is a static site generator. The idea is that you have 100% control over the blog just by editing files - you can see all the raw files used to make your site under the "files" section of the sidebar. You can read more about how to use Jekyll here: (https://github.com/mojombo/jekyll/wiki/Usage)
If you're using one of the default templates, all the navigation links are in the file "_includes/links" - there's an example link provided, and you can add any other links you want (or nested links, or images, or anything else via HTML).
I'm still considering the right way to automatically add links, comment systems, or other add-ons like Google Analytics while still giving users all the code to their sites, but rest assured it's on the roadmap. Thanks for the feedback and suggestions, and happy blogging!

Thanks for the quick response. This has tons of potential and I'm real happy things are on the roadmap. Can't wait!
As I mentioned, and I may be wrong, but people interested in this service will most likely be people like me: They're aware of Jekyll but aren't familiar with it. They want the clean post syntax, syntax highlighting and light footprint, but they also want the comfort of managed hosting for it.
That link you provided for Jekyll usage is key, I'll have to read it. Maybe you can show it to new users so they too can easily find it.

#8FYI: I really wanted to sign up just to try out the service, but I can't, I picked GitHub (because that one takes less information than, say, Twitter ["Application will be able to follow new people"]), but I just keep getting redirected to sign up.

Chrome on an iPad is also showing the red SSL warning page.

Sorry about that! Looks like there was a hole in our Github auth flow if you don't have an email set. Should be fixed now. Or if it's something else, at least it should show you an error message.
Happy blogging!
