Great news. Congratulations. If anyone is interested in learning more about Jekyll I've put together a link collection called Awesome Jekyll @ Planet Jekyll [1] - it also includes a section on the history (evolution) of GitHub Pages. Cheers. [1] https://github.com/planetjekyll/awesome-jekyll

Why are you using a README to display this list instead of GitHub Pages?

You can't easily do pull requests on a GitHub Pages static file. (You'd have to edit the source.)

It's a tradition. That's how awesome lists work. See the mother of all awesome lists -> https://github.com/sindresorhus/awesome for more examples. The idea is to keep it as simple as possible e.g. just a single README page. That's all.

Can you use Travis to build and modify the repo for you?

Absolutely love Jekyll and GitHub Pages for hosting project documentation and personal websites. Just wish GH Pages would support SSL. :(

You can always add CloudFlare in front of it. They also provide free SSL certificates.

They work just like any other Markdown file, and you can include a link in the rendered site to edit. See http://ben.balter.com/2015/09/13/github-pages-edit-button/.
