One of the great things about having a blog is getting comments from people. Some posts get no comments, some get one or two, and then there are some that generate several comments, effectively turning those posts into discussions. But there are downsides with a basic blog commenting system, such as the lack of threaded replies and the inevitable comment spam.

So to enhance the commenting experience, and to get ScottW off my back since he's been nudging me about this for awhile now, I've swapped out the standard Graffiti commenting system in my blog theme for Disqus.
I won't regurgitate all the niceties of Disqus here, as Scott already did a good job of that (with steps to add it to Graffiti for those interested), but I'm looking forward to seeing if using Disqus really does enhance people's experience when leaving comments on my blog.
Feel free to comment away :-)
