Thank you all
I appreciate the kind birthday wishes and gestures. They all meant a lot, thanks! Usually this one day each year means some due reflection on how everything is going so far. A progress report, if you will. I’m pretty happy with this last year of my life. Just overall excellent. And I’m so psyched about topping it by this time next year.

Mobile commenting →
We ran into some small bugs with the reply-by-email feature this week. Most of it is fixed, but please bear with us as we knock out any issues that are still around.
Disqus is working on a couple things to make mobile commenting more powerful. We’re working on a couple ideas that should see the light of day soon. Does anyone out there have anything they’d like to throw on the wishlist?

Words? Just words?
I’ve been thinking a bit about the complaints of Barack Obama’s substance. I hear this a lot. I’m not sure if it’s just parroted rhetoric, but a lot of people seem to think Obama has little beyond the “hope” he’s so popular for.

So it saddens me to realize that we haven’t written a Disqus blog update this month yet. Incidentally, this month has some of the biggest things going on for Disqus,...

If I knew what that word meant, I wouldn’t have looked it up, right? Just give me the damn definition without making me click through to another page.
