I really like the Octopress Classic theme, I think it looks great for a blog-first website, and very readable. As I somewhat despise the designing part of a theme, I just started on top on the wonderfully fine-tuned Octopress frontend template. Hey! The Octopress Classic theme itself was based on the Twenty Twelve WordPress Theme! Now I am bringing it back full circle.
Octopress at this point is abandoned. There is not really any reason not to move on. Besides, static site generators are inconvenient for regular bloggers.
I made this theme for my blog, just for personal use; which requred very few features to begin with. If you want to add XXX feature to this theme, please feel free to fork it, add it, and submit a pull request, I'll be happy to merge it and put your name among the contributors list.

Linklog: Linklog support is already built in in the theme loops. Use The DFLL plugin to write linked list posts.
