Hey Entheophiles,

We're very excited to announce the release of the new Erowid Experience Vaults. We've been working on this new section for over two months now and are very happy (and relieved) that we've finally gotten it to a releasable form.

It currently contains over 600 experience reports for over 75 substances...and there's another 1600 reports in the backlog which will be reviewed and added in the upcoming months. Check it out and let us know what you think. We're looking for feedback and bug reports if you have 'em (there's a link to the bug report form at the bottom of the Experience Vaults front page).

This has been the major project we've been working on, so only a few other additions to report at this point.

We welcome submissions, suggestions, criticisms, or corrections at submissions@erowid.org.

peace,
fire
