Disqus and the comment-o-sphere

Started by mathewi · 1 year ago

As a number of people — including Nick Gonzalez at TechCrunch, Dan Frommer at Silicon Alley Insider and Om Malik over at GigaOm (who I think broke the story first) — are reporting, the hosted-comments company known as Disqus has raised money and launched some new feat ... Continue reading »

    You know, those hints about possible uses for comments imply that Disqus will have some level of control over comments, and will use them out of context in a separate application.

    That might be appealing to some people, but wouldn't it mean that Disqus would wield control over ALL comments in its system?

    matthew,

    i don't think everyone needs to use disqus for the vision i outlined to happen.

    i suspect that once everyone sees the power of unlocking comments from the ghetto of blog hosts, that we'll see a lot of innovation and cooperation from all the players including the blog hosts themselves

    Thanks for the comment, Fred -- maybe I overstated that a bit, or put it badly.

    I just meant that comment systems such as Disqus are better the more people use them and the more comments that are aggregated by them. As I think you're suggesting, that could be accomplished in a number of different ways.

    Meanwhile, in some kind of bizarre coincidence, for some reason Disqus didn't get activated on this post.

    I had no clue that they didn't have trackback links.

    Regardless, I think Disqus is a neat system and can be very useful when dealing with comments. So many people forget to come back and check for replies and I think it solves that problem and allows for the conversation to continue, when it usually dies out because people forget to come back and respond.

    I posted a response on Jitendra's blog post as well. It's a good discussion to have.

    Mathew,

    Oddly coincidental about the Disqus deactivation on this entry. :)

    Our implementation of trackbacks was supposed to be in for beta 2. Missed the deadline, but it's almost there.

    Probably one of the hardest things anyone can do is try and learn something new. Congrats to anyone who tries.
