+		The site uses HTML templates to avoid tedium and for the ability to make
+		small changes across the entire site without editing multiple files. It uses
+		the html/template package included in Go's standard library.
+	</p>
+	<p>
+		A server is required to serve these templates. Once again Go provides with
+		the built in http package. This makes writing a web server extremely easy.
+		All you have to do is write a function to handle incoming requests and call
+		http.ListenAndServe(). Painless.
+	</p>
+	<p>
+		Since I'm running OpenBSD, TLS can be dealt with external to the webserver
+		by using relayd. As an aside, I encourage anyone looking for an operating
+		system to give OpenBSD a look. It's been an absolute pleasure to work with
+		so far. As long as you don't expect it to be exactly like a Linux-based
+		system (it's not), then not only is it more secure, but also
+		<em>easier to use</em> than something Linux-based. Even for a noob like
+		myself. Sane design and good documentation go a long way.
+	</p>
+	<p>
+		Inspiration was taken from httpd and the server runs chroot'd. When
+		serving content it also drops down to an unprivileged user with setuid.
