Steve Wilkinson IMO, the main problem (there are others) is that *as a user* if I leave a comment on a WordPress site – and actually want to interact, vs just dump a comment there – I have to make a note to myself to go back and check in on that article from time to time to see how the conversation is going. With Disqus, I can leave comments on many different sites, and get notified of interaction… and it’s just a click, and I’m right back into the discussion. I’ve tried various plugins and services related to WP native comments that add aspects of that functionality, but they are both frustrating to administer/implement, but worse, horrible experiences for the actual end users. From an end-user perspective, Disqus works, and works well. That’s my #1 concern.
