We talked about this about two weeks ago (me, Adam and Darcy) and we somewhat agree'd on Disqus. The problem here is that, what Worth mentioned about Progressive Enhancement in the issue about search not being available to non-JavaScript users (https://github.com/jquery/web-base-template/issues/18), I'm not so sure about Disqus either.

As far as I know, this requires JavaScript, especially if we need # of comments printed on different places (which we are), so I'm somewhat leaning towards using the WordPress built-in platform instead.

Any thoughts on this? I'm asking because we need to style the comments and that's not something we want to do before we decide on what platform we should use.
