Vox is closing down, free move to TypePad offer

Got this message today from Six Apart. I liked Vox and hoped it’s superior media embedding/library system (books, video etc) would be adopted on TypePad, but no sign of that yet. I suspect one less platform to concentrate on will help TypePad development but recent changes there, like the on-line post editor update, have been rather patchy.

My Vox blog is now archived at http://rcd.typepad.com/vox

Important service announcement:  Vox is closing September 30, 2010

Vox has been a fun place to explore, create and connect with your friends. But Vox is closing its doors on September 30, 2010.

This doesn't mean you have to say goodbye to your blog. We want you to make sure you can keep the great content you’ve shared on Vox, and continue to have a home for your blog. To help you make the transition off of Vox, we’ve added new export features that make it easy to move your blog to a free TypePad account, and your photos & videos to Flickr.

If you’re an active Vox member we encourage you to read the information below about what's happening during the month of September, and learn more about how you can migrate your content. There is more information at closing.vox.com.
