can't wait to see how this works!

Im extremely excited for this change, as I already use disqus comments on my blog, and this makes it even more seamless. It'll probably make more people click over to my site! :)

Will this allow my ridiculously awesome comments to remain perched at the top of the discussion where they can be reviewed by the tattered pastry faithful instead of being passed over, as reader interest wanes from shuffling through countless rants and a few fart jokes?

'cuz that would be rad.

frick! I couldn't comment on Firefox, IE, or Chrome - only on my iPhone. Hopefully I can find a remedy, otherwise I dunno what I'll do!!!

While Disqus is better then the basic WP comment system, Intense Debate is what ya need here. Let me know if ya want an invite.

human3rror · 1 year ago

intensedebate is neat... and it's got a nice auttomatic leg to stand on, but still doesn't compare. js-kit is another i've demo'd.

but, keep an eye out

I like the system, have been asked about implementing it on a few other blogs but still checking it out... it does work well for those blogs who have such a high volume of comments that a little more organization is needed (like RS here), but I wonder what WP2.7 is going to have as well.

Great that you are able to put this in place, love how it keeps the history of the comments in the profile, and a gravatar of course, that really creates some recognition between commenters.

Giving it a shot. Sounds cool.

lightvox · 1 year ago

I am really excited about this too. As soon as John mentioned it we added it to lightvox.

what else is there to say? Los continues to push the boundaries, try new ideas and rock the blog socks off us all :)

matt · 1 year ago

very cool.

Well, this is interesting. I was only hoping to direct some of you to the "50 Words Or Less" challenge at http://twentytwowords.com/. I wrote my blog post (please check it out) and was so glad Abraham Piper allowed us to use 28 more words than he uses per day!

I love Disqus and have been using it on my blog for a few months now. I tried a different, to remain unnamed, service and it blew everything up! Disqus has been very stable and very helpful when it comes to customer service.

And considering it is free... that's a pretty awesome thing to see.

Also, Disqus seems to be taking on in a LOT of blogs and BIG sites with commenting systems. I agree that it does take "commenting" to a whole new level that runs parallel to the blog and not necessarily subservient to the blog.

vagabondrunn · 1 year ago

Cool idea.
Everything is always upgrading.

betterthanblank · 1 year ago

this looks awesome and as always Los leading out with great new tools to bring us closer together

djchuang · 1 year ago

So glad to see you're using Disqus! another great reason is that people can now leave video comments! That's right up your alley, eh, @loswhit :)

Brandi · 1 year ago

Finally! This is what has always been missing from all other blog sites besides Livejournal. So exciting!

I am digging the Disqus concept Waiting however to see if it's direct competition Intense Debate gets implemented into one of the upcoming releases of WordPress (seeing as it has been purchased by WP parent company Automattic)

leoschmidt08 · 1 year ago

I think I like Disqus' setup better where you can actually see what other comments people have left. I am not all that familiar with Intense Debate, but it seems like that was not quite as easily done.

djByron · 1 year ago

You know.. I might just try and implement this now on my blog. When I checked Disqus out a few months back there was no ability to import or sync comments with your local WP database. Now that you can, it's not like you're making an eternal commitment. You can simply back out at any time!

portorikan · 1 year ago

Seesmic video reply from Disqus.

leoschmidt08 · 1 year ago

I am curious to see how your experience was when you tried it out. I agree with you on the syncing. That helped sway my decision because I felt like I did not lose all of my comments just by testing them out.

Is it any better or worse than Intense Debate or about the same?

leoschmidt08 · 1 year ago

I have to say a big thanks to Human3rror also. I saw his post on the ChurchCrunch website (I think) and had to add the plugin. It is awesome!

I also like the meet your commenters plugin he recommends. How did I ever go without that one??

human3rror · 1 year ago

word!
