vox

I've been messing around with the preview, invite-only version of Vox , the latest offering from Six Apart (makers of Moveable Type and TypePad). It's a hipper sort of Live Journal type of site. One of the key features is that you can create privacy areas for friends and family, so if you want to be more personal, you can control who can see what (well you can group them into friends, family or friends and family...it's not set up for individual viewing specifically). It's an interesting premise and there are definitely bugs that they need to work out but it's interesting. It would be nice to feel unfettered when I blog.

Is anyone else using Vox yet? Let me know so I can add you to my neighborhood. Of if you want a Vox invite, let me know and as soon as I get some I'll invite you in!

I'm not on Vox but I have a permanent account on LJ. Look for this username! I like the friends-lock features there which provide a lot more privacy than other blogging features.

Do you have any invites?

Vox seems like the kind of free blogging service i'd use. The fact that it ties into Amazon + istockphoto only sweetens the deal. If you score any invites down the line, please send one my way.
