At DCist headquarters, we’ve been working hard to figure out a way to make commenting on the site easier, faster and more fun — and I think we’ve done that. I’m pleased to announce that this weekend, DCist commenting will be migrated over to Disqus, a dynamic commenting system which, among other features, will allow our readers to log in to comment through Twitter and Facebook, customize the way they view comments, and include multimedia in their posts. (Of course, the usual way you comment today will still work, so don’t freak out or anything.) Around 8 p.m. on Saturday night, we’ll be migrating existing comments over to the new system, so you may experience some comment downtime that evening and into Sunday. Some comments left on posts in the past might also temporarily disappear — but we promise, it’ll be worth the wait.
