Hi Abhishek,

While I was visiting Continuum, I wrote several IPython Notebook/blogs
that we hosted on Wakari.  Here's an example

I think Wakari would be your quickest route to getting started
blogging with the IPython Notebook.  You can author and share public
notebooks for free.  The nice thing about Wakari notebooks is that
they are executable.

I think a lot of the other IPython bloggers are using custom setups
and hosting their own.  Here's Jake Vanderplas's post about migrating
to the Pelican templating engine (he's hosting on GitHub):

You can also just upload a notebook to GitHub or similar and use
nbconvert to render them.  That's how Software Carpentry hosts their
"live" lessons:
http://nbviewer.ipython.org/github/swcarpentry/bc/blob/master/novice/python/01-numpy.ipynb
 The notebooks can be converted to HTML before uploading as well:
http://software-carpentry.org/v5/novice/python/01-numpy.html  This
method is probably the most popular, as you can upload the notebooks
as well.

Be sure to submit a link to the IPython subreddit when you blog:

Good luck!
