Happy Vox Launch Day!
It’s been a long time in the making, but the day of the official Vox launch is here.
In anticipation for this event, we asked all of you guys to share what aspect you most appreciate or like about Vox. The answers were varied and personal (just like Vox members) but there was one aspect that really shines: the Vox community. Even though Vox is primarily focused on allowing you to share your life with the people you already know and care about – and, more importantly, care about you -- during the past months of the beta/preview real friendships have developed.
Short and sweet, everyone on Vox really rocks. And since the beginning of June when we first opened up Vox to beta testers, you all have been so welcoming. There are over 85,000 people currently on Vox who are incredibly active (which is what really matters). That’s a lot of people for a gated invite-only system that has had controlled growth. The best thing is that even with a community of that size, Vox still feels intimate and welcoming.
We’re counting on this wonderful community to help welcome all the new folks who will soon be joining Vox. We’re extremely dedicated to growing a diverse and vibrant community so this launch is just the start of Vox, not the end.
To all of you who have just joined Vox, everyone at Six Apart (the company that builds Vox) welcomes you! You’re now part of something great – something that we believe is lively, powerful and fun. The best way to learn what we’ve all been up to is by reading older posts on this blog (team.vox.com). We roll out new features and improve Vox at a very regular pace so be prepared to see improvements big and small to continue. Anyone can now join Vox instantly, but the invitation system is still the best way to invite your friends and family and get connected to them in the same step.
Thanks again to all of you who have made Vox what is is today (our members and our staff). We look forward to you all making Vox the absolute best neighborhood online.

Yay Vox! Yay launch! Yay lots of way cool people using Vox!
And what a great day to launch it on too (it's my birthday!)
I'd kinda stopped blogging where I was before - I am using and ancient comp and dial-up, but the blogging bug has been reawakened in me here - I've even had to stop myself adding things I wanted to as it was too much!
Cheers - and Happy Birth/Launchday :o)
Gracias Vox!
I've made some awesome friends here on Vox who, had I never joined Vox, I would have never met! You guys rock! Thank You for all your hard work and spoiling us so much!

I think not only is this good this is awesome! I've been loving on Six Apart since my first go around with Typepad then I graduated to Movable Type and now I've added Vox to my plethora of Six Apart love! I'm glad I was able to share in the Vox beta launch it's been fun and I'm glad I joined! All of the Voxers are awesome and I haven't met one I didn't like!
Six Apart keep on doing what you do best, rocking my socks!
You have done an amazing job.
Your project has truly set a new standard, thanks
