I use git on bitbucket for all my personal stuff, because by signing up with a .edu email account, they gave me free unlimited private repositories. Sold.
My only concern would be that people are finding my mostly-bare github profile instead, since that rules the hivemind.
Ha, you're not alone there! Hell, the only reason I have projects on my GitHub profile are because I felt scared about having a bare public profile linked to my real name. Mine still looks a bit stupid, because I'm a .NET dev with three Java projects from uni, and a Python blog written for Google App Engine.
I use both Hg and Git at work, and to be honest for my basic workflow there are very few noticeable differences in day-to-day work.
