Where have all my voxers gone...

~

I could not get anything to work with the TypePad import - probably because everyone was trying to move their blogs at the same time. 

Most of my neighbours seem to be going to wordpress ...... so I'm also going to try there.  If you are not going to wordpress or if you see that I haven't added you to my Readomattic thingy (though I'm not sure how you could tell whether I did or not)    please send me an email and tell me how to find you: 

aussie.emjay@yahoo.com

I will be at aussieemjay.wordpress.com

i've added you to my links along the side menu of my shythom.wordpress.com blog. also have added you to my blog surfer so i can see your latest post on my dashboard.

typepad will cost you $9/month after the first 2 weeks trial anyway.

[Emmi]

Emjay, just click on the Vox page and they have a whole page on how to import to Typepad, I think.

[Purplesque]

Oh, darn. I will follow you asap as I get home, Emjay!

I've moved ... into nice:


http://innice.typepad.com/


You have now 29 days to decide to move to Word Press, but first I would suggest you try Typepad as:

1) Same owner as Vox, Six Apart

2) Six Apart could well have sold Vox, or make it a pay site (as NING did), but rather they decided to give us a free migration tool, as free BLOGS on the non-free typepad platform: they deserve some reward from us

3) I've had little time to check it out, but I think that the Typepad platform is - if not superior - at least as good and modern as wordpress

4) By staying in Typepad, with the Follow thing, we can keep the community alive. Move to WordPress and this will it will be gone...

apolline read what I've just written above,,,,,what do you think ?

[Apolline]

I think you are right except on the question to have a blog open on the winds or protected ... I choose to have a protected blog for several reasons ... problems of intellectual rights, litterary and artistic property, private life ... I did not read that TypePad authorizes this protection.

What do you think of all that ?

 

[IronyOnHighHeels]

WordPress will be my destination. Checked out TypePad and as far as I can tell it's only free trial and then you have to pay even for basic blogging. Not a chance in hell really.
I'll let you know how to find me ;)

[Maju]

I'm at http://maju01.wordpress.com/

[marco(a)]

it is free trial for anyone except former VOX bloggers.

[Maju]

Ps. It seems you can't add neighbours as you can in Vox; you can only subscribe to a RSS feed. As far as I know.

I am freedomsmith5 at wordpress.  You can find me with the blog surfer.  I will try to find you as well!!

[Emjay]

I attempted to transfer to TypePad but couldn't get the import wizard to work. I kept getting Bad Gateway messages and time outs.   I will try it again in a few days time when there might not be such a heavy demand on their server.

[marco(a)]

we got bad gatewat ("500") yesterday too.

Try empying the cache and restart the computer, then try again.

[marco(a)]

BTW WordPress is "pay" too if you exceed 3GB of content

[marco(a)]

neither wp or typepad has the level of granularity in protection of content that Vox had. Vox was a superior platform.As of now, it seems WP does a better job in this respect.

[this is good] I shall follow you on WordPress, and add your new address to my blogroll.

I'm also on Wordpress, at: http://blogcollectables.wordpress.com/

Let me know if you need help setting up your blog. I'm a pro at it!

[Mr. Guilt]

I've been on wordpress for a while now, running in parallel.
http://mrguilt.wordpress.com/

It wasn't so much that I liked WordPress, it was that Vox seemed stuck in 2006:
-It really only supported IE and Firefox
-No mobile solution other than e-mail
-No API, which would allow the development of tools (in contrast, there are a bunch of tools to create content for WordPress)

Wordpress had its quirks, but was pretty OK. I didn't like how photos were handled (they had a hard limit on storage).

Typepad seems to be a happy medium. I was able to import to:
http://mrguilt1.typepad.com/
(I'm going to see if I can get rid of the 1)

My plan is to test out Typepad for a week or so, then formally pick--expect that I'll make a post or two to both Typepad and Vox on the matter. In any case, I will definitely follow you wherever you wind up.

[this is good]

[Hangaku Gozen]

I've added you to my Readomatic list, so not to worry, we'll see each other there!

But I'm so mad at SixApart, I don't want anything further to do with them. I especially don't want to pay an annual fee for Typepad. Why reward them for first denying they were planning to shut down, then abruptly telling us we had to leave, pronto?

[Kyata]

I have bookmarked your new site, thanks! I have moved my blog to http://kyata.typepad.jp/blog/, but after reading here I think I will give it a try at wordpress,too. Firstly thought about Blogger, but I did't hear too good things about it
