Disqus is now THE comment system for blogs
There you go, I said it. I had some holdbacks for Disqus but with the latest release it is really amazing. First of all, the comments are nice and threaded and you have one login over all of your comments on all blogs. There were some things that were still bad but they were just fixed:
- Your blogs comments are now included via an API in a SEO friendly manner and not via JavaScript.
- The comments are synced back to your wordpress installation so you are not loosing anything and can always switch back.
- You can import in your old comments … theoretically, failed for me up till now but let’s give them some time. You can set it to only be the commenting system on commentless posts and new ones.
- You can moderate via your wordpress admin.
Well I am sold. Disqus is running and I am happy. Check out more reporting at Techcrunch, A VC, and the Inquisitr. Have fun trying out Disqus.

My only concern now, now that search engine can index the comments - are there going to be any duplicate content issues with your comments being hosted in two different locations... Is it going to be a case of out of the frying pan and into the fire.
