Switched to Disqus

Posted October 12th, 2009 in Meta | Comments

I’ve switched the comment system on the Primate Labs Blog from WordPress’ built-in comments to Disqus. Disqus is a hosted comment and discussion service that offers a lot of nice features; you can “log in” and leave comments with your Twitter, Facebook, or OpenID account (you can also sign up for a Disqus account).

Disqus also enables threaded discussions instead of a flat list of comments, making it easier to reply to one person instead of an entire comment thread. Disqus also (optionally) notifies you when someone responds to your comments, making it easier to follow discussions.

I really hope Disqus makes it easier to have meaningful discussions on the Primate Labs Blog. If you’ve got any questions or comments, you can let me know by posting a comment!

  • That's really a cool stuff been posted.. DISQUS rocks.. great experience with it... hope it beats the competitors.. thanks for your info!!
  • I like Disqus much more I just installed it on my WP blog, and so far, not a single spam comment has come through. I also like the way it lets people interact easier, through commenting..
  • I am coming around to DIscus
  • Good move! Just did the same thing myself, and found the install process to be super simple and pain-free. Their API is pretty nice too. Wonder how hard it would be to build a forum using the Disqus API..
