Looks interesting... didn't use it, though. What are the actual benefits of this service?

Giving strangers any type of access to certain parts of your website or database is very risky and might lead to disastrous results. How could you even trust such a vendor or website that don't list a Contacts page, valid address or professional support helpdesk!

And what would happen to your visitors' comments if this website decided to close their business tomorrow, or suddenly vanished from the Internet :eek:

I am asking if anyone uses them with their Vivvo site not if I should trust them... Wanted feedback on Vivvo webmasters experiences, if any. There is many do's and don'ts about them, and hey I do agree with what you are saying too so no hard feelings, everyone has their own views and opinions.

I have come accross them on many websites, but took notice of the service on the Mashable.com website where I wanted to comment on a particular article and found it to be a very neat tool. I'm not thinking about using them, want to keep my comments :cool:

Suppose to be a global comment system that improves discussion on websites and connects conversations across the web. Not sure what benefits you can gain from this as I do not use them, this is why I asked. :)

No problem Berto :D

Well, there are a few reviews on disqus.com out there, but I believe the best one is Michael Stelzner's, where he had reviewed this new service in detail. You should find it here (http://www.writingwhitepapers.com/blog/2009/07/11/should-you-use-disqus-comment-system-maybe/).
