I built Spinto, which is pretty good for technical blogging:

http://www.spintoapp.com

Git + Jekyll + pre-processors like Scss & CoffeeScript. Pygments-based syntax highlighting, and a web interface for writing content without Git if you don't want to. It's in beta now, and it's getting better all the time. WYSIWYG blogging and asset management are big next-step features before exiting beta.

Anyway, I'm bootstrapping it, and I'd love to hear your feedback! Give it a try. matt@spintoapp.com

And this is very off topic, but I've noticed something on your landing page that I really envy -- the background pattern. The gray, hatched background at the bottom of the page is awesome. And it's very similar to the background at venturebeat.com. Where did you find that or how did you design that?
I'm pretty sure that pattern is a stock Photoshop one. But yes, it gives things some depth.
That's a very cool project. I'm definitely going to look at it and I'll make sure to give you some feedback if I end up going with it.
