One year ago today, Vox officially launched! Here's my post and moblog from that day.
In that year, so many great things have been added to make Vox even cooler, with more ways for me to love it. And as I've had a year full of change personally, this matches well! Some of my personal highlights from the last year:
- I love that Vox has finally made it possible for me to share things with my family - having Sarah, my Mom, and E's mom all be part of it has been such a nice treat to have this way to keep them up to date on my life.
- I am glad for being able to record the books and movies that I've been enjoying so much this year - I have such a nice way to look back at what I was doing during any given month over the year.
- I am proud for the way groups have grown, particularly the Knitting group. It's a happy way to see how so many of my friends are growing in their knitting!
- I appreciate things like [this is good] for introducing me to new people I might not have met. I have some great new friends, particularly people who enjoy TV shows through the new fall season, and that's been really a fun thing.
- I smile looking back at my moblog posts this year - this has been a constant for me even when my time for posting has been light, and it really gave me a chance to still easily share a little bit of myself, and have something to look back at.
So happy birthday, Vox, here's to many more years of greatness to come!
Yesterday was my last day at Six Apart. I am so blessed to have been here for over 3 years and watch Six Apart grow in so many different ways. It's been so cool to be part of different teams along the way, and then working on Vox as it was created and has turned into a terrific service!
I'm going to take a break, play with the hobbies I've been developing, and do some things to take care of myself. I'll probably get to do some fun housework too, maybe finally paint that wall waiting for me! :) And I'm looking forward to getting back to blogging more, too, so I'll be around for sure.
Thanks to everybody for your support along the way!
I'm having such a hard time picking between the new themes!!! So currently, I'm stars-and-stripey-patriotic :D It's great having that problem :)
This will be announced tomorrow, but I got a chance to give out info for my friends and family first :)
Have you heard of Moocards? They are like little business cards you can give out, and they are going to start letting Vox members print off their own. You can get a 10-pack sample (for the first 1000 people) by following the steps below:
- Add Moocards to your neighborhood, even if it's just for now (until the order is complete)
- Then shop on their special version of the site at moo.com/vox
- Pick either photo or text cards and do the free 10 pack option.
- I did text ones and used fun fonts and patterns, and then my member photo/vox logo on the back.
- Moocards will ship anywhere in the world!
More details will be up on Team Vox tomorrow, but you don't have to wait till then :)
Edited to add: Probably don't share this with any one else until Team Vox posts, since this is supposed to be special first chance for my friends :)
Edited again: The Team Vox post about this is up now :)
I *love* the new Vox themes for the holidays! The biggest challenge is, WHICH ONE DO I PICK?! :D
The pinks on the pink ornament one are beautiful, and I love the idea of the cookies. The holiday stripes and modern holiday ones are so classy. Aurora is beautiful.. Ornate trees has such nice scrollys in the tree. And on and on and on... I think I will have to do what the post suggested and switch often throughout the holiday days :)
Maybe this will finally kick me into gear for decorating, too. We've got the lights out and plan to do the tree probably tomorrow. My wreath isn't even out, man, I can't believe it's the 8th already! I need to get rid of this cold so I can start enjoying making Christmas treats, too :) Woo for the holidays!
