Recently, I started using Ghost as personal note journal on my Mac. I reviewed several non-Wordpress self-hosted platforms and finally decided to test Ghost. Ghost was easy to setup, there are a few free good themes that you can use or create/ customize your own. I really like the markdown editor. It allows you to use markdown as well as HTML. Most of the time I use the editor to write my notes. Sometime I will use Mou to write, export to HTML and paste in the markdown editor. I believe Ghost platform is growing and has momentum so hopefully it will have more features like scheduled posts, tagging, comments etc. I also run a web service on a LAMP stack. Initially I thought about using Ghost for blogging but due to complexity and lack of information on running Apache with SSL and Nodejs on same server decided to wait.
