Hey Saurabh,

I've done some changes in my local fork. I've added the author as well, it's always good to give credit :)

Moreover, 80 characters seemed pretty short to me, right now I've set the limit to 180 characters, and three latest posts at a time.

You can view the changed site here: http://www.kartikanand.com/pydelhi.github.io/

Let me know about your suggestions and feedback. Once we close on the style, I'll generate a PR

Thanks, Kartik

@kartikanand this looks good. It can utilize some styling to make it look cool.

Something like this is what I've in mind. Unless you have better idea.

[theskumar]

Here is the overall look.

@kartikanand create a pull-request and/or give me write access to you repo, so can make the changes to the code.

[kartikanand]

Sure I'll do a pull request for it.
