Ok, so I mentioned that news was becoming tricky to finesse, at least for me. Anyway, forget about all those 'md-span' stuff. I needed news to be dynamic - the content to change based on date by default, or based on the URL. Essentially, this is how a news site works, but with my rather simple model of rendering markdown based on hashchange, news would have had a single static page - and it does, but in a very quirky way. I coded a couple of models including some ExpressJS apps, till my battery ran out, and all of them conflicted with my main goal - simplicty. I'll post an update on how I managed to get news up and running while maintaining the overall simplicy.
