Saw this recently - seems like a nice idea:
GitHub gists (quoting from the site), are:
"a simple way to share snippets and pastes with others. All gists are git repositories, so they are automatically versioned, forkable and usable as a git repository."
"Snippets", in the above, means, of course, code snippets, since GitHub is a code repository site.
The GitHub gist entry page (where you can create a gist) tries to detect the programming language used in the gist by the file name extension - you can paste the code into a text box, as in a pastebin, but you have to give the gist a file name, like foo.py or bar.c .
