There are days when I feel like a Fred Wilson portfolio fan boy. I am seriously high on Twitter (their vision of what’s to come, I think is impressive). But I also love Disqus, the comment system I use on all my blogs.
Both of these technology companies do something that is both an obvious need and difficult to accomplish. Simply put, that’s making the conversation more interesting. One of Fred’s common themes in his blog is that the comments are much more interesting than the actual posts. I don’t know that he gives himself enough credit, but the underlying point is accurate. There is real value in the conversations that are going on on blogs, on tweets, and other places.
I really value technology that brings those conversations to new audiences, and allows for more conversations. Disqus just released a new version (which will be appearing here shortly). Go check out Fred’s post, and the official Diqus post.
