I'm a bit of a political oddball, but I enjoy a good debate as much as (ok, probably more than) the next person. It's difficult to maintain one's composure when the other person you're debating with is more interested in scoring points than making one.

Ouch.

Well, at least I can see the comments I make via Disqus, when I'm on the blog, now.

Trying to figure out why it's now giving me an invalid user ID.

Okay. This is working, but unless I'm signed in I cannot see anyone else's comments. Is that a glitch, or is it a feature? :)

Hover over the thumbnail beside my name and see what else is available.

Intense Debate made a pretty shrewd move when they posted a script on their home page that allows people to "test drive" the application on their sites before they installed it.

Intense Debate is letting you test out their script without installing it on your site. Pretty smart move.

This is nice. However, it requires special knowledge to use effectively. It works for Scott Jangro (above), but not Jeby, and not an anonymous user like Lola, but it doesn't explain why. The thumbnail does not not seem to afford a hover state (or a click, for that matter). There may be a better way to handle this so it's clear what happens.

It's just too bad all blogs don't work this way. I took ID down a few months back when my readers were having some significant problems with it, but with the changes you've made, it may be time to revisit.

Seeing how Intense debate is working these days. Don't mind me. :)
