Theme Update, Disqus and Twitter Tools Plugins

Several weeks ago we installed the Disqus comment system and Twitter Tools Wordpress plugins over on the blog at Communications Tool & Die. I decided to install them here as well. I’m using slightly different settings in that I have told Twitter Tools to create a blog post here every time I update there. I’m not 100 percent sure that I really want to do that, but I’m going to try it out.

I’ve also removed the inline Google Ads on this site since nobody ever clicks them and they’re just ugly. I think the banner image ad at the top is sufficient advertising on an incredibly low traffic site.

Also I had a link to an Amazon Unbox promotion which is no longer active, so I removed that link as well.

I still would like to completely overhaul this site, but I haven’t decided exactly what I want to do so I am in a holding pattern on that.

I absolutely love Disqus and am happy that you guys are trying it out. I get all excited when I see other websites using Disqus, and it encourages me to leave a comment. :)

Disqus has ability to import existing comments as well as export comments. I didn't lose any comments when I moved to Disqus..Disqus is really good stuff methinks...!

Disqus is the top commenting platform in my opinion. Not only is Facebook Connect integration nice but allowing users to also use their Twitter accounts to leave comments is awesome.
