Disqus: Scoble, Winer and Fred Wilson Like it, Why I Don't

I emailed Daniel about this. One feature I'd really like to see is a way to "reuse" the user accounts I have on my own site. I don't want to tell users, oh if you want to comment you have to sign up for a new account over here..

I haven't given it enough thought to know if that is possible though :-(

If both Disqus and your site used OpenID you would get that for free :)

Unfortunately it appears that neither does :(

Anyone developing a new website should take the little extra time to support OpenID authentication, it would make the world a better place.

However, one nice thing about Disqus (like OpenID) is that you only have to register with Disqus once, and any blog using Disqus can use that one account.

We like OpenID and you'll see it show up soon.

I always hear people talking junk about openID, so I figured I should wait until the next standard comes along. But per your comment I'm going to look at it again with hopefully an open mind.
