The Disqus Blog: Social Media Reactions: Connect the conversation across the web

  • hotel-chiangmai · 4 months ago
    Still waiting for this. Any idea when it will be available for everyone?
  • krishnamoorthy · 8 months ago
    This is very nice feature! Great job DISQUS!

    I have enabled the Social media reactions settings last week. How will I know if it has been activated or not? Do you notify via mail or something?
  • Jeff · 8 months ago
    I need this on my blog
  • Joe · 8 months ago
    Hey guys, thanks for the hard work. I've added it to my site and just waiting for it to show up.

    Thanks again!
  • Joe · 8 months ago
    I just noticed that there is nothing extra added to the tweet when you post it to twitter. It seems confusing to just have the comment go straight to Twitter. Is there anyway to having something like 'Commented on <sitename>' added before the tweet?
  • Anton Kovalyov · 8 months ago
    We attach a shortened link to every tweet that is made from Disqus.
  • Joe · 8 months ago
    The link is certainly helpful, but I think that without having any sort of context for the tweet, it makes no sense. I know there isn't a lot of real estate in a tweet but something denoting that it's a comment would be helpful in my book.
  • Anton Kovalyov · 8 months ago
    I understand your point, Joe. However, with 140 characters limit you get either a somewhat meaningless link or a completely meaningless tweet. So the former is the lesser of two evils.
  • Joe · 8 months ago
    Yeah, I agree. With such a small space, not a lot of choices.

    Thanks for keeping up the good work on Disqus.
  • Alan Wolk · 8 months ago
    Anton: Have you considered something like "via Disqus Blog Comments" or similar, so that people unfamiliar with Disqus have a sense of what it is?
  • Giannii · 8 months ago
    Alan,

    We've considered that but it uses a lot of characters. Possibly (via Disqus) but we have something else planned. =)

  • josiahstaggs · 8 months ago
    I love the new features but I have no idea how it would look because i can't find any examples. Can someone please explain how a tweet would be gathered and displayed?
  • Giannii · 8 months ago
    I will be posting a video later tonight/tomorrow morning explaining how to set it up and showing the look as well. For the time being however you can check http://bit.ly/itTx .

    No, it's not working for me either Zee. Installed yesterday afternoon, a new post this AM had several re-tweets I was aware of, but did not see them on the blog at all. Would love to see what this looks like when it does work.
  • Daniel Ha · 8 months ago
    The release is a limited roll out. The post has a two additional example sites to see it working.

    The settings are live for everyone and we decided to announce it because people noticed the new changes. In a few days, we will be completely up to speed and everyone's site will be pulling in these.

    @ Giannii-Great work! I especially like the social media reactions feature. It reminds me of the conversation tracker that KickApps offers to its premium users. Can't wait to try this out.

    @Joe, I totally understand where you are coming from. Without something that lets your network know that the tweet came from a Disqus comment the tweets might seem out of context or even worse they could be seen as spamming your network. Not sure if I will be adding this feature, I think instead I will try to keep an eye out for it on other users tweets/blogs and then see how it comes across that way first.

    I'd be curious to hear if anyone hear has used it in their twitter profiles and if so how their network reacted to the tweetbacks. Thanks!
