Good questions, delta. My primary goal is to popularize e-Vox via email, but I'm intrigued by the possibility of an e-Vox UI as well. There are certain challenging problems to making it viable as a venture, but I'm interested in exploring the possibilities. In fact, I imagine that hubski might be the right place to talk about such viability, and if any coders/developers are intrigued by the project to the point where they'd like to be involved, I'd welcome contact. Any and all takers, feel free to pm me.

I expect that many will dismiss the e-Vox as rehashed voicemail. Hopefully, some of them will recognize voicemail as a matter sorely in need of a good rehashing.

The social network question is intriguing, and I must confess that I haven't really dreamed far in that direction as yet. In general, my motivation here is to help restore sustained, direct and personal contact to human relationship, which has become increasingly fractured and insubstantial, which in no small part is due to the structures of social media as it has developed. However, the prospect of enjoying the e-Voxen of the people you follow on a closely connected and engaged community such as hubski is most definitely intriguing.

Thanks much for the direct and fruitful questions!
