Let’s Disqus

Started by VinnyLingham · 5 months ago

I’ve been looking for a more efficient system to replace the flawed commenting practices that blogs currently employ. There are number of up and coming services that look very good, such as SezWho & Disqus. After much deliberation, I have opted to go with Disqus (with a bit of help from Louis Gray [...] ...

  • I've found it interesting how it creates referals to you site (you see someone's comment on Friendfeed or their blog and head over to the initial post). I've enjoyed playing with it.

    Welcome aboard!
  • Way to go...... As Czar says it turns static blog into something social and interesting..........
  • I like it.... Disqus turns static blog posts into something social and interesting.
  • Seesmic video reply from Disqus.
  • Seesmic video reply from Disqus.
  • Yup - I hope that my community embraces this :-)
  • And this also allows me to build a community around my readers...which is the really cool part!
  • Oh geez Vinny!

    The video attack is too much..
  • Come come, it was thaaat bad!
  • This app is most engaging and facilitating. Even though my company blog is still under development, I am convinced Disqus will grow into a "gotta have" in no time. It kinda "forumifies" your site, so now there is no more need for a blog and a forum.
  • The more I think about it...the more I believe you!

    i'm in discussions with a programmer friend of mine who worked for clickatell on the viability of developing technology that can stream radio to mobilephones via the WAP platform. perhaps the same could be done for blogs and blogging.. some type of micro technology that includes the .mobis and other WML-developed properties...

    then again.. i could not be as well-read as i think i am..
  • I think that the new iPhone 3G will be a game changer. Everything we have thought about before then will have to be rethought...
  • works beautifully
  • i salute you for making the move to silicon valley. south africa lags behind in almost everything tech-related. now i believe all eyes are on you to bring us up to scratch with whatever happens in the technosphere..
  • Disqus is very interesting. Would love to try this out blogs and see how it works!
  • On another blog I was reading a post in which owner of the blog reported some bugs with Typepad and diqus. He had to switch again with pagination. I think many content management systems have many flaws.
  • Disqus is one of the best commenting systems
