Small tweaks and ability to link to individual Posts

This post is just showing that I added a subjec to the posts instead of putting everything into the body and marking it up with my own html. I also made the subject linkable and created a Posts controller that takes in an id of a post to show. These are some simple things that needed to be done to get an actual working blog system in place.

Some next steps:

1. Admin screen to create/update posts so I'm not typing directly into the database.
2. Update UI - I'm going to use the twitter Tweet bootstrap project to start off with.
3. Create a post about writing a database migration tool to easy manage changes on the AppHarbor database.

First Post

This site is a place where I can play with some technologies to see what's new.

Currently, I'm starting with the default ASP.NET MVC 3 Internet Site template using Razor as the template engine. I'm running on a SQL Server 2008 database.

I'm also experimenting with AppHarbor for easy continuous integration.
