HomePage: Here’s the result. On the homepage I hosted some of the content on Amazon S3 storage but converting all the URLs to point to it is a HUGE hassle. So I don’t think I’m going to be using them until the traffic demands for a CDN.

\nSetting up Golang with Heroku was quick and simple after reading this guide. Getting Started with Go on Heroku<\/a> by Mark McGranaghan. I decided on sticking with Heroku, instead of Google App Engine because using Google App Engine for hosting requires to many architectural changes.<\/p>\n

\nA major problem I had with Heroku was finding out how to point to the correct filepath for static content on the file system. The answer is simple. The base directory is where `.git` is hosted.<\/p>\n
\nI got stuck on this part because I needed to figure out how to properly make a nonce (one time token).
