Ghost - where are the apps?

Waiting for Ghost apps is like waiting for Affinity Publisher; The promise is getting old.

I'm all for waiting. I waited for the PS2 when I was in high school. I wait for the bus every day. I'm waiting right now for the next four hours to pass so I can start my weekend. I'm used to waiting. The thing about the aforementioned situations was that I knew what I was waiting for, but more importantly how long I would be waiting.

The PS2 was announced with a release date. It was a shocking 2 months, but I waited, and by the end, I had no finger nails. But I waited, and the reward was totally worth it. I was the undisputed king of Tekkan tag team (Paul and King). I live on one of the busiest roads in Sydney, so while I wait for the bus with know knowledge of when the next one will be, I wait patiently because there are so many people waiting with me, we know we won't be let down. And four hours one a Friday is nothing to wait before the weekend starts, in fact, I do this every week.

So why, with all my patience, am I sick of waiting for Ghost apps?

I have visited the 'Coming Soon' app page on Ghost.org every month since I saw the page. I read everywhere for people to subscribe to the mailing list and wait, but I like the pleasant surprise of opening up my present before being told what it is. So I am not going to join the mailing list. But when I am greeted each time with the coming soon every time, I begin to lose faith. I don't mind waiting, but tell me how long I should wait. It's like watching 'Waiting for Godot' twice where nothing happens four times. Just let me know how long I have to wait, and I'll wait until then. The suspence is killing me!

Like the bus, I wait with a lot of other people out there. I am sure I am not the only one desparate to see what Ghost apps do!? Am I right? I want to see what this modern blogging platform can do with developers and apps going nuts on it, and I know I'm not alone! That's why I continue to wait. Ghost has too much riding on apps to let it fail. The communit eagerly waits.

Let four hours become 3, and go with a beta release... please!
