link: again with the "omg vox has security settings" like it's a new thing. no. it's not new. LJ has it. MT has it. WP has it. lots of other services have it.
I get the impression that the one by one transferring of posts is going to become a en masse ability to transfer posts. Which is a good thing for people and a good thing for Vox, but if people can transfer their blogs from Typepad to Vox, well, that's a revenue hit in my opinion. Typepad gets at least $5 a month from each subscriber. Vox doesn't even have paid levels at this point, nor am I sure what it would offer those levels.
More space? Voxers get two gigs. Per month.
Capabilities like polls, maybe? Virtual gifts?
I dunno. In any case, if Vox sinks, I'm not sure what 6A will do.
I'm too lazy to look right now, but does LJ support embedding Vox media? Does Vox media support being embedded elsewhere? They support embedding all sorts of dumb, obscure shit.
WP has it, and you use passwords. Passwords you can change at any time. Passwords that you can make twenty different ones of and only assign one entry to each.
I don't think Vox is gonna be a big hit. It might float for awhile yet, but in this world of MySpaces and LJs and GJs and such, they were late to the game and are providing a sub-par product to anyone who's done any sort of blogging before. Vox = blogging for dummies, dumbed down further?
