Hello Ghost

I've spent the weekend migrating my blog from its old home on Tumblr to a self-hosted version of Ghost on Digital Ocean. While the $5/month for a Digital Ocean server is more than a free Tumblr account, the advantages are worth it.

• I have full control over the site
• I can easily customise all aspects of the design
• I own the content
• I have no fear of Yahoo shutting me down
• No one is injecting ads

Plus, it's been a great opportunity to brush up on my Linux skills.
