Two other things I'd like to suggest Vox could do better. The posts I write there are cross-posted automatically here, but the embedded links dissappear, and the spacing is all strange. So bear with the teething troubles please! :-)

Drew,
I've just started up at Vox as well.
I agree that it's annoying that only vox users can comment.
What I really like about the platform is the fact that I can choose who views my stuff.
This means I can write a personal blog, lock it for viewing by friends and family, and not have to worry about things I write coming back to bite me in the future.
Often I'm about to write something on my professional blog - when I have to tone it down or leave it out all together, for fear it will be taken the wrong way.
With my vox blog I can indulge my odd sense of humour for the reading pleasure of those who know me personally, and I don't have to worry about it being on the public record.
Also, I don't have to focus on grammar and spelling as much.
This means when I get the urge to write about something I don't need to worry about whether it fits my target audience, whether someone out there will take it the wrong way, or worry about spelling and grammar.
This makes for a refreshing blogging experience - I'm really just writing for the joy of it and for the interest of my friends and family.
