Strangely Middleman wasn't mentioned here as a alternative yet, so I'll do it: http://middlemanapp.com/

With its 'blog'-gem nex Jekyll features like excerpts and support for timezone-config have been implemented for a while.

I have much preferred Middleman now for about six months. To be honest there would need to be a significant difference to convince me to move.

I'm a huge Middleman fan. Made a couple static sites using it.
