Discussing on Disqus

I am regular reader of news.ycombinator.com and I try out web apps that get built out of Y Combinator startups.

Disqus is one such and it improves on the blog comment experience by making it more of a discussion.

I have added it on my blog and am somewhat underwhelmed. With Disqus, commenting UI is a little different and I am afraid it might prevent some one from commenting.

I am going to keep Discus for a while because I have gotten these things wrong very often. Twitter is the most recent example:- I was thinking why would any one use this thing?. But then I saw it in use on Dharma's blog and only then I got it.
