HTML Templating using jekyll

Still not sure what the best way to organize the files are, but essentially everything in the root is built into the static version of the site under the _site/ directory. 

The issue with compiling into the root directory is that it would overwrite everything else, including the gitignore, config, etc, which is less than desirable. Hopefully having the static site in a directory isn't too big an issue, but I'm sure we can find a workaround if so.
