gist resource does not use github, however it emulates a github gist. the idea is that in the future we will add gist-github that has the exact same methods with the exact same argument signatures, instead it uses node-github (https://github.com/ajaxorg/node-github) via the github resource (https://github.com/ahdinosaur/github) to be persisted on github.com.
