Today I switched the comment system for this blog to Disqus (“discuss”). You’ve most likely already used Disqus on other websites even if you didn’t realize it – they reach over 200 million people each month. Disqus is used by CNN, Fox News, TechCrunch, and many other popular websites. Their reach is all the more impressive when you consider that the company only started in 2007. Here’s how Disqus introduces itself:
DISQUS is a comments platform that helps you build an active community from your website’s audience. It has awesome features, powerful tools, and it’s easy to install.
There are a number of features that Disqus provides that are quite compelling. As a blogger, you get threaded comments, inline media embedding, social integration, mobile support, email support, and much more all “out of the box”. All of that is now available here, on this blog.
Installation was simple – just download the plugin, activate it, and login. One of the primary reasons I felt comfortable switching to Disqus was its integration with WordPress. All new comments will appear in both Disqus and my WordPress database, which means I can remove Disqus at any time without losing any data. All existing comments are now in Disqus too. That process was somewhat trickier – the automatic importing didn’t work properly for me, so I had to manually export some comments from WordPress, and then import them into Disqus. Even that didn’t take much effort though.
Disqus also has really simple integration with Tumblr, so I am using it for comments on my Edmonton Etcetera blog as well.
You can learn more about Disqus at their blog. If you’re a developer, check out the API documentation (I’ll be looking into that more).
Hope you enjoy the new comment experience here!
I added it to my Tumblr site as well. Super easy to do.
Yup, we’ve come a long way in the world of blog comments!
Made the same switch last week
Great minds think alike 🙂
Thanks for choosing to give us a try!
Thanks… you’ve convinced me to change over… I’m been hesitating for a while.
I was too…I hesitated for a long time. I didn’t want to lose my 12000+ comments! But it has gone really well so far.
May I suggest a followup post in a few weeks with your overall opinion on the switch. Thanks.
Good idea, I’ll try to do that.

I like to have the system, you can see in the video, comment on the

The integration of Disqus with other social media would be one of its feature that is mostly used by people for interaction.
