Updated: I was confused and for a good reason. Finally logged in and it said they sent the wrong email and that beta testing is over. Which makes sense but what do I know. In either event I will eagerly look forward to updates to the self-hosted platform. That’s what I really am interested in.
I received this from Ghost Blog today:
Hey buecker,
Boom! You’re in. We’re rolling out beta (actually, alpha) access of the new Ghost Hosted Platform to a few select Kickstarter backers, and you’re one of them.
Let’s not beat around the bush about this: We’re calling this alpha for a reason. We don’t know if things might explode (it’s possible) – but we very much hope that following a couple of weeks of rigorous testing, we’ll start to be able to call it beta… then stable.
Most importantly – we need your help for this! The alpha/beta preview is completely free of charge and without restrictions. If you have time, please set up a blog or two and let us know how you get on. If you run into any problems with the hosted platform, drop us a line on [email protected].
Have fun, and try to break stuff!
Looks like the changes haven’t been made yet because it is all grayed out. I don’t remember being a kickstarter backer either but I am active on the forums. I also have my ghost blog setup at blog.pcprime.org. I look forward to the day of replacing some of my wordpress installs.
