rift coming see, these features keep you from refreshing the page to participate in comments. That will dramatically reduce the page views, which will reduce the amount they collect from advertisers.That is quite different story.

Technogran, there are a number of "push button" Wordpress hosts out there, which makes things easy.

Whether Disqus would be your best choice for a commenting system is another thing. I use Disqus, and there is one or two things which erk me about it.

Well, isn't it more about who clicks on the ad and goes to that ad placer's page, not how many times the page gets refreshed? It's the clickthrough, no? I'm not getting this.

Well it will reduce PI but not necessarily visits. And I kept telling my customers that it is the visits that are im portant and noit the PI (and that number iof RSS subscribers is a purely fictional value ;) )

It is quite possible to channel your emails to IM but that'd be manual work
on the suer's side which Disqus could eleviate easily (many other services
provide complex IM bots like the best Yahoo Answers wannabe Vark.com)

Firstly - it really is a shame that publishers have to design the websites around impressions.
Those fortune magazine style slide shows are not fun from a user perspective.

Some strange comments: old model of advertising dead? PPC in on it way into history? ???

I am sure we will see some new ad serving technology to level the playing field.

Automattic bought Intense Debate - http://ma.tt/2008/09/intens...

The latest releases are getting better and better, more closely integrated with the core via the comment API.

"Which shows we need a new way to get paid for advertising" - exactly !! The old advertising model is truly dead, for so many reasons. Take a look at what we do as an alternative, maybe even for Building43

Amen to that Louis (I use far too many spiritual statements for a pro faith, no religion sorta guy). It comes down to value derived from a site experience. I want information, entertainment, thought provoking discourse and those activities aren't directly supported by modern web monetization models.

Sharing, linking, and explaining are natural activities to bloggers, why shouldn't there be ways for them to capitalize on this incredible value given. Most folks I follow don't have ads because it doesn't fit into their vision of their virtual home, "hey come on in for a beer and pretzels but first look at this Pepsi tapestry".

Everytime you share something or writeup great documentation on a product or technology I should be able to say thanks, here's a shiny quarter.
Some potential methods:
micro payments
monthly mini subscriptions ($.99 even an option to say hey Louis good job giving us the skinny on things) or
you put out an ebook every 3months based on your posts & greatest finds

Anyone who buys in could be afforded greater access or maybe even suggest topics, or just a shiny star next to their names in your comment section to show they support your work.

Woohoo real time disqus, I feel less worried about being reliant on external social sites, we can chat on each others blog pages. Will update and turn on real time as soon as I'm able. Thanks for the heads up Robert.

I would like people to see me typing too.

The economics of employing those 'qualified' (meaning sanctioned by the corporation) to address Real Time comments currently does not stack up. You would need Call Centers full of 'press-trained' PR folks ready to give legally watertight responses to sometime ill-thought-out and potentially libelllous comments. This is NOT the way the world is going, look at the recent Wikipedia moves to edit content. For this reason, I think there are some big questions on Real Time Comments as the Next Big Thing (for business, consumer-feedback is another matter..)

I totally agree with Daniel. Trackbacks are lame. I wish they never had been invented. I spend most of my time just blocking spam in them.

You can't use Disqus in wordpress.com but I hear Matt Mullenweg and team are working on new real-time commenting features themselves.

Re: Real time comments will piss off pro bloggers (at first)

Fajar — Wed, 26 Aug 2009 03:25:14 -0000

Yes! I'd love IM notification too. I've been using friendfeed IM notification and I really like it.

Re: Real time comments will piss off pro bloggers (at first)

Apostol Apostolov — Wed, 26 Aug 2009 03:19:27 -0000

People don't. Bloggers do stay and stare at the new pages, however. ;) It's their addiction.
What I love most about Disqus is the fact it allows you to comment via email. That's how people who won't ever bother visit your page again might continue being part of the conversation. I'd love to see Disqus implement even IM notifications in v4.

Yes, you have to make the visual updated manually, by changing the "theme" of your Disqus. That's only visual though, the functionality rolls out automatically.
