[FREE SERVER PROMO] Install GHOST for free on a free SSD server with this coupon

Ghost

A little off-topic, but highly interesting: In April 2013 the former User Interface Head of WordPress (and WordPress expert) John O’Nolan started a Kickstarter campaign to fund the creation of a new open-source blogging software, something that corrects everything WordPress has made wrong. GHOST is exactly that. GHOST was funded with 8x (!) more than the original goal, and the result is a beautiful, extremely lightweight, extremely fast and entirely in JavaScript written (!) software with a node.js server in the “backend”. A few days ago, GHOST was released to the public, and this will definitly become the new WordPress (and node.js will btw definitly be interesting for every PHP developer).
