Me Too: Mashable Uses Disqus

A while ago, Mashable started using Disqus — a very powerful commenting tool.  Why is the most socially savvy site on the internets outsourcing their comments?  Well, they’re a lot to maintain, and as the web becomes more open, you can easily get behind.  Instead of integrating Facebook Connect from scratch, I’m switching to Disqus.  I also get OpenID and Twitter integration.  But the best thing I’ve noticed so far — nearly no spam.

Easier for humans to comment and harder for bots — what else could you ask for?  Oh, right, it’s free.
