2. Change the filename to include today's date and the title of your post. Jekyll requires posts to be named year-month-day-title.md
3. Update the Title. Those variables at the top of the blog post are called front-matter. In this case they specify which layout to use and the title of the blog post. There are [additional front-matter variables](http://jekyllrb.com/docs/frontmatter/) too, like permalink, tags, and category.
