Debating about Vox
I joined Vox back in 2006 on a whim when it was still in Beta. Mostly because I like playing with new toys, and the user interface is simply gorgeous. I moved my "official" presence here and kept my ancient LJ account for blathering about fandom and for my parenting communites in which I've been active since Abbey was born.
But here's the problem; Vox doesn't really work well as a business presence for me personally. Maybe it would if EBSQ had an extension of our community here. But even then, I am thinking of moving on to less community-oriented pastures. Maybe wordpress. Despite its communal nature and some lovely people on my flist, I just don't feel terribly connected here, which of course, makes it less likely that I am going to spend time blogging here. The place where I am chit-chatty is LJ. And despite the age of my blog, I don't want that to be my public face for me and my business. I don't think I feel comfortable having that be here, either.
I don't know. I really don't know.
