I’m not really sold on the idea of Disqus from what I’ve heard. From what I’ve read it’s a product that allows you to (if you are a publisher) install it on your “article” page and it will track comments and provide an external forum (wtf?) I think it also has some sort of global login dealy so that if a lot of blogs in your bookmark list use it you can use 1 login and it will track your history and “rep”.
I think the market is too small here, but I do think the idea is fairly solid and along the same lines as Open ID.

 Disqus is going to launch two features to help blog readers track the most interesting comments on a blog or other web site.
|
|
Forum and blogging software has been around for many years, but there’s still no easy way to find the best comments within a web site or from across web sites.
|
|
Disqus has a two-part answer to this problem. It provides an advanced commenting system that can be added to a blog article page. Features include nested comments — tiered according to the order in which they were left — and a way for readers to vote for or against comments, and spam protection.
|
| The other feature is a forum hosted separately by Disqus that displays comments from a blog according to how recent the post was published and how “hot” the discussion is on a particular post — in other words, how many comments that post has. |
