I just did some playing with Elias Torres' app.php for Wordpress. Seriously impressive. Now that I know how to do simple posts to that, I thought I might try the same thing on Vox. Is there a published URI for APP on Vox yet or is it still under development?
I'm genuinely impressed that they support it. Less impressed that there are no 3rd party tools which do yet. Hurry up MS with the next releases of Live Writer! We'll support APP in our writing tool but you won't see that until 2007 as part of the site roll-out.
Sent a simple piece of formatted text as a HTML email and it just stripped the whole thing out and did a blank post. So much for my cunning XHTML uF backdoor posting method. Source editing is a must have!

Works on the mobile too but this is from Thunderbird. Next test is some HTML.

Is Vox a blogging platform or a social network or both? Nice look n feel. Any support for Structured Blogging or Microformats? Well there does not appear to be any way of writing raw HTML. Heck, even MySpace let's you do that.
