Jekyll has some conventions for blog post file names which are a bit of a pain to manage manually, so Octopress ships with a rake task to make that easier.
The filename will determine your url. With the default [permalink settings](https://github.com/mojombo/jekyll/wiki/Permalinks) the url would be something like
Now that you're setup with POW, you'll just run `rake watch` and load up `http://octopress.dev` instead.
### Pages
You can add pages anywhere in your blog source directory and they'll be parsed by Jekyll. The URL will correspond directly to the filepath, so `about.markdown` will become `site.com/about.html`. If you prefer the URL `site.com/about/` you'll want to create the page as `about/index.markdown`.
Octopress has a rake task for creating new pages easily.
Like with the new post task, the default file extension is `markdown` but you can configure that in the `Rakefile`. A freshly generated page might look like this:
The title is derived from the filename so you'll likely want to change that. This is very similar to the post yaml except it doesn't include categories, and you can toggle sharing and comments or remove the footer altogehter. If you don't want to show a date on your page, just remove it from the yaml.
