This week, Bob and Pat talk with Daniel Ha, cofounder and CEO of Disqus, a global commenting system that touches the online lives of about 500 million people each month.
Daniel explains how Disqus started, through its Y Combinator days, to recent scaling and monetization.
Disqus is built on a technology of Python and PostgreSQL on the backend and handcrafted Javascript on the front end. How has commenting on blogs morphed into huge and small online communities? Daniel shares his viewpoint and experience.
