Razer Megasoma Review

Razer Megasoma is a hybrid of a hard and a soft mouse mat; If you love the softness of a soft mat but want to have the speed of a hard mat, Razer Megasoma delivers (this is debatable and I guess more like a personal preference). Razer Megasoma sits somewhere in between, combining the best [...]

An update to DISQUS Commenting System

DISQUS Commenting system

On my other blog, Write for God, I installed a commenting system called DISQUS. I haven’t properly made a review or an impression about it yet but it’s quite a sleek system. Just got an email of the latest updates:

  • Introducing the Narcissus comment system theme. If you aren’t already using this theme, be sure to enable it by going to your settings and clicking customize. All the new features are built right into this theme, so make sure you’re using Narcissus to fully enjoy Disqus Comments on your site.
  • Disqus is now real-time. Posting comments is instantaneous and new comments are updated right before your eyes — all without reloading the page.
  • Tools for administrators have been redone to be as robust and powerful as you need it to be. Check out the new moderation panel for the most consistent way to manage your community’s discussion.
  • More integrations! Now visitors can login with Yahoo!, alongside Twitter and Facebook.

If you are looking for something more than the default commenting system, you should either try DISQUS or IntenseDebate (both are very popular although lots of bloggers recommend DISQUS, I forgot why though).

I haven’t installed it on this blog yet and not sure if I want to at this stage.

I think the disqus is popular and a very good commenting system but i think the comments are javascript based which are not crawled by google and so you don’t get the additional value due to comments. I.e i dependa a lot on the comments they help me get some traffic from search engines

Oh you serious? I thought being popular, all the problems should have been fixed or updated. Hopefully they can fix the commenting issue somehow in the future

@gautam
I agree with you. I also depend a lot on blog commenting. Good to see that Disqus has uopdated their plugin. I prefer to use commentluv to award my commentators.

Many times I considered installing disqus instead of wordpress default commenting system, but I’m so much in love with default one, that I could not add disqus, instead I will love to add facebook connect and twitter connect in my commenting system.. but I highly recommend this one for Blogspot users..
