By now, most readers are aware that we have had some major issues with our commenting system through Intense Debate. It has been a problem for two weeks, and we, as a site, have not been able to get the system up and running to our satisfaction.
Knowing that we are losing out on vital commentary on our articles, we have decided to implement a new comment system, from Disqus. The Disqus system works very similar to Intense Debate, and adds a cool little sidebar applet that lets you tab through the top users, commented stories, as well as the most recent comments. To register, just head over to www.disqus.com, and set up your profile or within the comment itself, and start up some intellegent discussion. Or, most likely, flame the hell out of our opinions. Either way, get in there and start talking up these stories.
One more thing, we are currently trying to import all the old comments into the new system. If all goes well, you will see all the old comment threads show up here soon.
