First, we're happy to announce that the team has identified and fixed the issue with the YouTube conduit; you can now find and add videos from YouTube to your library and posts. As always, thanks for your patience!

The other news we have today is about a new addition to the Six Apart family: TypePad Micro, a new free level of TypePad that is streamlined for microblogging. We see a new form of blogging emerging that lives between the quick status updates of Twitter and Facebook and the long-form posts of "classic" blogging; TypePad Micro is designed to meet that need. You can read more about TypePad Micro in Chris Alden's post on the Everything TypePad blog.

TypePad Micro

7 comments

A lot of the new capabilities we've added to TypePad this year were actually inspired by some of the best things about Vox: favoriting, member profiles, a dashboard to follow other bloggers, and easy ways to post content from other social media sites. But the things that make Vox different from TypePad are still there: Vox has always been -- and still is -- the best place for "friends and family" blogging, where you're in control over who sees what. TypePad, on the other hand, is built for the blogger who wants, no, craves, attention.

Do you have a passion or interest you want to share with people beyond your Vox neighborhood? If so, we'd love it if you tried out TypePad Micro. Maybe you've always wanted to start that obsessive blog that's just about waffle restaurants. Or want a place to share videos of your favorite band (Jonas Brothers, anyone? Anyone? ...). TypePad Micro's great for those topic-specific blogs. Take it for a spin and let us know what you think.

On the Vox front, our designers are working on some cool new themes (coming soon!). We'd also love to hear your thoughts about where we should take Vox in the coming year. What are the key things you'd like to see for Vox? If you've had a chance to use TypePad this year, what are the features there that we should bring over to Vox? And, if you're thinking big thoughts, how could we connect the Vox and TypePad communities in order to bring together bloggers and their shared passions? Your feedback is really important to us, so please leave a comment here, or shoot me a message.

And again, thanks for your patience as we found and fixed the YouTube bug!

As many of you have noticed, the YouTube Conduit is not working. I am so sorry about this; I know how frustrating it is.

The team is looking into how to get this fixed and I will update you as soon as I hear something. In the meantime, not all is lost... There is a work-around for posting videos.

When you're in the Compose Screen, just click on "embed." Ignore the fact that it says "Widget" before everything because you can definitely use this to embed videos as well. You'll just need to input the embed code from the video, enter a title (if you want) and hit OK.

It might not show up perfectly in your compose screen, but when you hit "Save," your video should appear just the way you wanted it to.

Hopefully this will allow you to keep posting videos while we figure out what's happening on our end.

As always, thanks for your patience.

I need ideas again. Dx I realized the other day that I don't really feel like cosplaying Aya anymore. :/ I'm just not feelin' it. So the past few days I've been thinking and looking through stuff and whatnot. And I came up with these. 8D

Miku Hatsune

Name: Miku Hatsune
Originates from: Vocaloids
Pros: mini-group with cousin and friend, easily recognizable, simple
Cons: Very popular with cosplayers

BRS

Name: Black Rock Shooter
Originates from: Vocaloids, one of Miku's songs (?)
Pros: mini-group w/ cousin + friend, simple, semi-recognizable for Vocaloid fans, has a large gun (lol)
Cons: I might not be comfortable, considering her outfit.

Luka

Name: Luka Megurine
Originates from: Vocaloids
Pros: Has pink hair (wut), easily recognizable
Cons: Outfit's kind of plain, I don't have her boobs. (That slit down the side kinda has me worrying too.)

Ciel Phantomhive

Name: Ciel Phantomhive (girl ver.)
Originates from: Kuroshitsuji
Pros: Loli-esque, I wouldn't have to buy a wig, semi-popular with females
Cons: I'd have to commish the dress and the hat.

Ranka Lee

Name: Ranka Lee
Originates from: Macross Frontier
Pros: Simple, cute
Cons: I haven't watched the animu. <_< So I pretty much know close to nothing about her.

And that's about all I have right now. 8D Maybe I'll think of more later. Maybe I'll be more than one. 8D Who knows. Halp?

Go forth and fill your libraries with media.

Seriously, thanks to everyone for being so amazing and patient. You are the reason I love Vox.

and other things. I know that I said that I'd make a list, but this week has been slow so I think I'm going to type about all the random things I feel like talking about. But of course, when I want to I start spacing out. I need more sleep. =____=

:> In other news, Halloween's in two days! (or a day in a half, when you think about it.) I couldn't really come up with a costume, so I'll just be wearing a lot of black. Please don't be afraid of me.

A while back (like over half a year ago) when I was feverishly perusing Den of Angels, I came across a tutorial for human-sized wings. They're so cute! >.<

Izumi Wings

I know I could probably make them after ransacking Hobby Lobby or something, but the tutorial-makers recommended getting feathers from this one site. Even though they said it was good quality feathers at affordable prices, and unless I'm mistaken, the feathers can still cost around 50 bucks. That's like half my Rinoa cosplay right thar. o_e They still look so cute and fluffy though. Ah! >_<

Oh, and I mentioned cupcakes because today, out of boredom (when I finally have free time I have nothing to do) I started looking up cute recipes. I found a few, along with some nice recipes I got out of the books Jenny and I checked out at the library. There are some cookies I found that were so loli-able:

CardShape Cookies

I actually found those in egl cooking. I really want card (style? what are the shapes called?) cookie cutters now. And ingredients to try out some of these recipes. sdlfkheroisdnfhgaq.

Jenny found a new MMO for us today. It's one from gamania (yay!) but sadly it isn't Lucent Heart. v_v I'm ferverently hoping that that one will come stateside soon. The Japanese version was fun, even though I didn't understand any of it. D:  So yeah. The new MMO's name is Bright Shadow. I haven't really played it much yet, just running around doing in-town quests. Here's my character, Shiorin. :3

BS - Shiorin

I guess this is their underwear, since when you start out and open your inventory, you have some clothes in there and these don't switch out. The starter outfit isn't that great though. >_o

BS - Shio Nuu

Yeah, I don't like the hat either.

Muu. I was gonna talk about something else. = 3= Herm. Oh yeah.

CURSE YOU PET SOCIETY FOR BEING SO DANG AWESOME.

I haven't fallen in love with a game like this for a while. Well, it's a sorta-game. There's only so much you can do in one day, but it still has the power to drag you back to it. D; Unlike Farmville. I've gotten kinda slow in Farmville. Maybe because I don't want to keep clicking to plant things but too frugal to buy a tractor. Ho hum.

Man, I really want Japanese food right now.

I know I should be doing my college crap (getting my last recommendation tomorrow) but nyaaaa~ I'll do it over the weekend. I know I don't want to push it off till the end of November. I wanted to get it done by the end of the month, but since that's in two days, oh well. Maybe I'll get it done over the weekend. If I don't die from candy poisoning or something.

I was just told that the Amazon Conduit will be fixed by tomorrow. I will post here as soon as I get word that it's back up and running.

I know this has been frustrating and I am sorry there wasn't more I could do to make it less so. I really appreciate your patience though.

Cheers,

daisy

Man. Today was kinda... weird. ._. I spilled all of it to Antonette already so I don't really feel like typing it again. Or copy pasting. =____= But anyway, I somehow got roped into judging for the tournament. Oh well.

I've got busy days ahead. Which usually means that I should use whatever free time I have now to do all my college crap and whatnot. But I'm lazy. I should really, really fix that before I regret it.

Starting tomorrow! (failing already...)

But seriously. Today was such a lazy day. I really feel like tomorrow I can actually get stuff done.

So tomorrow I'm going to make a list. >w< Lists always help me. I need organization right now. Stability. Stability.

I don't even know what I'm being for Hallow's Eve. Eep!
