It's more of a personal preference, I believe. The only difference is that if you use Disqus, it'll be spread virally from there too. So you can comment on a blog and someone from the web who hasn't read the blog post can comment on your comment. It's comment proliferation! Video comments I think of as being a novelty, similar to what Twitter used to be in its infancy before mutating. I see it more for mobile use first and maybe later from the desktop. I'm sure we're not all THAT lazy we can't type in our comments from our desks, are we? Nick, I’ve installed Disqus on my blog and I think it’s nothing new to the commenting world.
