Just letting you know we’re migrating our comments to Disqus.

It’s not a full migration - old comments will be managed by Wordpress, new ones by Disqus (typing that makes me nervous for some reason)

There will be no real difference, everything will be just as easy to use except Disqus brings far richer features to the site.

Anyway, let me know if you have any problems (you shouldn’t but it’s always good to check)

Aside from writing for Harvard Business Online, and his own blog Bubblegeneration, he is the director of the Havas Media Lab. They have recently released a Strategy Note titled - “User Generated Context”.

Look at his other stuff if you can as well. You won’t regret it. Promise.
