And I forgot to mention that I love the ability to rate comments up or down. That's pretty much useless on my site, but in general, I like judging other people's commentary, so…

Howard, I must say I'm even happier with it now, especially when I find blogs that have it installed. Good for you. I didn't have a smooth start either…but after a couple of weeks I'm thinking of installing it on KnowHR. That's a big leap.

I just installed Disqus on my site (which, as you know, is seldom besmirched by outside commentary).

So far it's pretty cool, though I did find that I had to restart the import process several times to get all the comments in. Don't know if that's a Disqus or a WordPress issue.

Whatever the case, this was a really cool idea. Thanks for plugging it, Frank1

That works…but I’m still bothered because the comment box is at the top. I told it to move…it’s misbehaving.

So how does this look?

This is exactly what I’m afraid of. And guess what? It compromised my old comments, so now I’m super nervous. Ugh…let’s see…it ate some, and now it won’t reconfigure. Yikes. I will uninstall it by tomorrow if it doesn’t reconcile.

That’s actually a great example of Disqus failing. I didn’t see your comment and just added another.
