As many of you may know already SplashBlog (which was bought by Six Apart, creators of Vox Blog Site) is being shut down by it's new owners. This is forcing many old Splashblog users over to Vox as the closest "ALTERNATIVE". The nice part is Vox offers MORE. It offers video, Audio, Text, and Photos. However this also offers a more cluttered site and more from your visitors.
Vox does include a software app for Palms built off of the Splashblog app.
At first I found the Vox app annoying because it would automatically post each image as a separate blog entry. A small work around is to set your Vox app on your Treo to submit photos to the library and NOT a new Post. This allows you to then login to the site and quickly create a blog entry including all of the photos you have uploaded to the library.
While Vox is a workable alternative, Splashblog was a GREAT and Unique site/service that just hasn't been successfully replicated by anyone else yet.
Farewell my good friend. I WILL miss you!
