What people are saying

My blog (http://rmenez.es) uses a variant of Syte (https://github.com/rigoneri/syte) hosted on Heroku. It looks great and uses Tumblr as a CMS. I highly recommend it.

I'm really excited for Ghost for the simple reason that it's written in Node. That means if this really takes off there will be pluggable modules that can do anything that you'd like without adding to the code base. I think it would make a lot of sense if the core team doesn't add much to the initial code base and rather iterates on the UI right and works on growing the community because that is what is going to make the project take off. Really smart move by Microsoft, if for no other reason than tons of people are going to be saying "wait, whut, where do I install this?" soon and if deployment is first class to Azure at least they'll have a lot of new people in the door.
