Vox.com, Led by Ezra Klein, Goes Live

Vox Media’s Vox.com, a general news site being led by Ezra Klein, is now live. It’s an impressive looking site and certainly more advanced than what Klein was used to at The Washington Post. Appearance aside, the most notable thing about Vox is something called “Vox Cards.”

According to Klein, Melissa Bell and Matt Yglesias — the founders of Vox —  the site’s mission is to “explain the news,” and a big part of that is the Cards.

At any point when you’re reading an article, a Vox Card could be available through highlighted text.
