What Disqus Can Learn From Boxee

Image representing DISQUS as depicted in Crunc...Image via CrunchBaseBoxee is the big dog. It's not Apple TV, it's not Google TV. Wordpress beats Blogger. When you think check in, you are more likely to think FourSquare than Facebook. There is something about the nimble startup that is focused on one mission.

Facebook just threw a big one in the direction of Disqus, a service I love.

They say imitation is the best form of flattery. Just like FourSquare had its biggest day on record the day Facebook Places got launched, I think this is an opportunity for Disqus to go to new heights.

How would Disqus do that? There are many ways. Disqus can potentially give me a richer individual identity, and can give me a much larger, better platform. Disqus has to do the Boxee thing. Disqus has to do the FourSquare thing.
