I saw Disqus recently on another blog and I'm going to give it a shot. Definitely a good idea and much needed feature for blogs. I've written some fairly in-depth comments that would make good blog posts. I will be on the look-out for blogs that make use of Disqus and frequent them for reblogging.

We’ve had a lot of great interest in the Disqus for WordPress plugin 2.0, with many websites syncing their old comments up with Disqus. While the large majority went through the import process successfully, there was a significant number of people who were experiencing issues. These issues were: Not being able to leave legacy mode Importing only some of the comments Issues with the RSS feed (FeedBurner) Complete importing/exporting failure Most of these issues are ...

So I’ve been here at Disqus for a month or so now. The biggest project on my plate had been testing. Because of the breadth of the Disqus software, my testing has to cover several different approaches to the platform. unit testing - using plain python unittests from the unittest module. view testing - using Django’s test client. in-browser testing - using Selenium RC’s Python driver. The first two are fairly simple and well documented. ...
