You guys are great, and so is Vox. Looking forward to changing the world, one new blogger at a time.

You sum up exactly why I use Vox. Love it.
two snaps for ben. :)

Mena and Ben, I think this is a great video that helped clarify for me your vision of the service. I think information needs to be featured more prominently on the vox homepage to help potential subscribers decide if Vox is for them.

If you do that, please consider what your message is for more-seasoned bloggers who are accustomed to ad hoc, cross-site networking faciliated by trackback and blogrolls. Are you interested in such people? What would you say to encourage them to use vox? I've got a couple of posts on my own vox blog about this.

I really like vox, and I think it has the potential to be the best blogging service yet. Please keep pushing your design so that you can attract and support the bloggers you describe in your video as well as bloggers developing larger audiences.

Thank you Ben and Mena...I posted my audio "Thank You" and the interview you (Mena) gave to Leo and Amber yesterday to give people a chance to find out a little bit about Vox/Six Apart. Thank you again for a tool that makes blogging fun.

Many Blessings to your family and your family at Six Apart

QotD: What I Love About Vox

great video.
Also, Mena, I couldn't help but notice that your shirt matches the current theme on this page :)
[this is awesome]

I never thought of blogging quite like that. Thanks for sharing the vision! (also ... cute dog.)

This concept is just so true!

I'm positive that VOX is going to help create a blogging revolution and subsequently move blogging further into the mainstream.

Best of luck with your new endeavour :)

Points all around! Keep up the great work. Thanks for Vox; best of luck.
[참 좋습니다]
베타 때보다 많이 좋아졌네요.
계속 기대할께요.
Hey! Just joining the fun.
[いいですね]

I like the idea that you want bloggers to be a part of the "bigger thing." A lot of people may think others blog just to write and post pictures but you seemed to get a great idea out there. Blogging isn't just a lifestyle anymore; it's become a part of culture.

Well said, Mena and Ben! You guys are so much fun to listen to.

That's right!

it's very good and wish the vox can free forever

love vox for all the same reasons. i do wish though that MY video would load and play as well. get that worked out soon! please. love you.
It would help if, in addition to "friends" and "family," I could create my own groups with which to share stories/ideas/photos with. For instance, there are things I'd want to share with very close friends and close family but not with acquaintances or people who are "family" but not someone I want reading everything I have to say. Custom groups in the neighborhood, basically.

As a way to pull people into my Vox, it would also be great if I could email pictures or other media to an email address outside of Vox for a friend to view and potentially get connected to the community.

I love the concept and the technology. Keep the mods coming! :)
This is so cool guys! The integration (particularly with Amazon) is amazing. I know it is in the early stages, but I am very impressed with the entire setup. The idea of filtering posts based on friends and family is genius! Thanks for making it free. Please keep it free!

I like having video and mp3s all in one place, together with the profile and blog. What kind of dog is that? I have been looking for a dog to adopt. I posted about it, on the blog.

you made an impressive good job
that looks EXACTLY like MY dog! :-)
I like some of what I see in Vox, it has some real promise, though it's not perfect. One thing I thought of would be more cross connection with Livejournal. I know I can post on Vox, and automatically cross post on LJ, which is handy (though I haven't tested what embedding a picture or what not will do), but if you allowed me to subscribe to my friend's LJs as maybe an RSS feed, I might be tempted to use Vox more often. I can read my lj friends, comment on their journal using openid, and I can post to lj via Vox. That would tie the two together very smoothly, and would certainly be welcome to me.
