Frequent readers might have already noticed that the comment system looks different. That is because TechPP is now powered by Disqus Comments.

Comments are like fuel to run the blogging vehicle. Your comments have always helped us to get better and with Disqus we hope that your commenting experience on TechPP is enhanced.


For all you loyal TechPP readers, you can still comment in the same way as you used to before by simply providing your name and email address. But now, you can also subscribe to all the comments without logging in, either by email or by RSS feed, and all of these in just 1 click!

Having a Disqus profile helps you track and manage your comments on various website better, but if you choose not to have it, you can still log in with Facebook Connect, Twitter or Yahoo.

Another cool feature which comes with Disqus is when you log in with a Disqus Profile, you can reply by email. When you receive the email notification that a new comment has been posted, you can just reply directly to that email to reply to the comment.

Personally, I would recommend Disqus for other webmasters and bloggers. I found Disqus to be very simple to setup. It imported several thousands of comments from the WordPress local within minutes and also provides sync back option so that no comment is lost in case you decide to get rid of it at a later time. You can customize the comment display easily, though the default options should be good enough.

We hope you enjoy our new commenting system. Feel free to post your comments below if you have any questions related to Disqus.

    Congratulations…For new commenting system.. Will wait for your feedback after a week… :)

  • http://techpp.com Raju

    If at all there is something I am worried about is the effect on page load time, will surely update about the performance in a week!

  • http://www.shoutmeloud.com/ Harsh Agrawal

    That’s one thing which most of the blogger commented on my blog when I wrote about DISQUS. Since you are using it, will love to hear your feedback.. :)

      Hey Raju
      It’s been 5 days and I would love to hear your feedback and review of Digsby…
      Advantages and Disadvantages…?

      • http://techpp.com Raju

        no real impact on load time, not much change in terms of number of comments received (may be a slight increase, but not sure if Disqus is the reason). Latest release has fixed the comments sync issue. Spam has reduced considerably. Disqus lacks the flexibility in terms of editing comments. If I edit a comment, it doesn’t sync back again and can’t manually sync the individual comment

    Hi Raju…I think you should make your (moderator) comments appear in green or bright green just like what Techcrunch did.

  • http://techpp.com Raju

    I wish too! But that option is only available for VIP (premium) users I guess

  • http://www.quickonlinetips.com Editor, QOT

    Keep track if your comments on both side are syncing. Page load time is another worry. We had these issues. Otherwise Disqus is simply great.

      why is it so?

  • http://www.techknots.com Vikas SN

    Awesome! So you also went the Disqus way! I personally have never looked back after installing it on Techknots.

  • http://techpp.com Raju

    Thanks for the warning! It was not syncing back to WordPress, trying to make it work now

    Might start to use this system myself. Seems very slick.

    • jone

    • du hoc

      I am also trying to use DISQUS in my blog, but i think I have some small problems !!!

  • Arvind Bhatt

    Good one PP.
    The you might also like [images are a little big.. :-/ ]

  • http://techpp.com Raju

    I didn’t get what the issue is with images. Which images are you talking about?

    It´s a great tool but using it in combination with Apture (as I see you are) and Wibya Toolbar I am experiencing some slow loading and it seems after testing that Apture and Disqus together cause slower loading. If I had to pick one it would probably be Disqus!

  • http://techpp.com Raju

    which tool(s) did you use to analyze the page load time? Most of the tools available are not consistent with their observations. I did remove the apture script though (for different reasons). It would be great if you can check out if there is any change now!

  • http://www.shoutmeloud.com/ Harsh Agrawal

    Thanks for quick response. So I believe I should stick to WordPress default commenting system…

    • http://techpp.com Raju

      May be yes! since Disqus is not perfect yet!

      default commenting system…

    This commenting system is getting popular now. I bet someday, all sites will have this one.

  • Maria Lawrence

    I have been using Disqus for a quite while now. Its been helping me to moderate and manage my comments efficiently, even while I am on the move from my mobile. This is the best comments moderating tool I have used…
