Video Commenting on the Flowercast

May 14, 2008

I’ve just discovered that the service I use for my commenting system, Disqus now has video commenting. And, I just couldn’t stop myself from giving it a shot.

Disqus is a third party commenting system. It’s downside is that your comments are stored on a third party server - but the upside is that anyone that is registered with disqus is registered on your blog. It also allows you to respond to comments from your email, and to follow your comment history, as well as others’, across disqus supported blogs.

seesmic The video commenting service that Disqus has teamed up with is Seesmic. Seesmic is a stand alone video service for video conversations that just recently went completely public. All you need is an account and a webcam.

I think video commenting is a tough sell, but I like the idea of it.

You can still leave text comments, and I certainly don’t mind those, but if you feel like showing me your mug and telling me what you think in person go ahead and click on that “Record Video Comment” button.
