SubscribeLifesterblog: Somewhat Like a Vox Chinese Version
Maybe there are always startups who think it is never too late to provide blogging service. Lifesterblog, founded by Edmund Wong, is a newly launched Hong Kong-based blogging service provider, which targeted Hong Kong and Mainland China users. And as many Hong Kong websites, it has English version as well.
At my first glance, I think Lifesterblog is a Chinese version of Vox. For example, the privacy control is similar as Vox does. users can select access right for every post, every picture, every video, every audio and every book, there are five kinds of access right: public, friends, family, friends and family, or private. You can hardly find another blogging service with such complicated privacy control in China.
The content import feature is similar as Vox as well. In Lifesterblog, you can upload multimedia content, or import content from popular web services, such as Flickr, YouTube, Amazon, Yahoo! Avatar and Facebook.
You may easily find the similarity between the UI of Vox and Lifesterblog as well, for instance, the UI of composing a blog post.
Vox has proved that it is not too late to enter crowded blogging market, will Lifesterblog be a Chinese Vox in local blogging market? Guang Lu thought it is not easy, I agree with him. Privacy control, widgetization and web service integration is what Lifesterblog differentiate itself from other local service providers, however, I don’t think most of Chinese users would be impressed by these features.
