Vox is an Internet blogging service run by Six Apart, which launched on October 26, 2006. Originally, it had the codename 'Project Comet'.
The service claims to be more streamlined and easier-to-use than other blogging tools available. Its design has features often associated with the Web 2.0 trend; much of the praise and criticism applied to Web 2.0 also applies to Vox. Vox is written in the Catalyst MVC Framework.
The service is more focused on social networking features than other blogging platforms. Such features include the ability to set permissions on who is able to view each post and a friends list on the sidebar. While other social networking sites offer blog functionality as an additional feature, blogging is the main focus of Vox.
In a release implemented on November 10, 2006, minor bugs were fixed. The release also gave beta testers of Vox, those who had joined before the initial release, a special theme as well as a banner in their profile designating them beta testers.
Before the launch of Vox, beta releases of the service were named after The Daily Show correspondents; release 15 was named Stewart, while releases 14, 13, 12, 11, 10, and 9 were named Colbert,
