Disqus and FriendFeed Tie the Comments Knot

Even though you could already do similar things with third-party services, like the Wordpress plugin or the FriendFeed/Disqus comment sync tool, Disqus is now officially supporting integration with the lifestreaming macro-blog site, and we think it's about time.

To enable FriendFeed integration through Disqus, you'll need to edit your global Disqus settings by selecting Account -> Services, and checking the enabled box next to FriendFeed (make sure to save).

Then, for each separate site using Disqus for comments, visit Admin -> Settings, select the appropriate site, and check the box to enable FriendFeed comments. The final step is to make sure that each site with enabled FriendFeed comments has a corresponding RSS feed in FriendFeed (Disqus only pulls/posts comments from the blog's RSS feed in FriendFeed).

We love the new synergy between Disqus and FriendFeed, and can only hope that this will lead to more developments to help us manage, track, and thread comments across the Web. Tell us what you think in the comments.
