DISQUS is the largest distributed social network on the web, capable of delivering interesting and unique value to individual commenters, professionals / publishers, as well as brands and organizations looking to build community and drive traffic.
We just launched our new platform (Disqus 2012), and continue to focus on deliver two amazing experiences -- user facing (video) and publisher facing (video).
This class will help develop a core understanding of the Disqus platform, including:
Depending on your goal(s) with this class, you’ll be a Disqus expert with the confidence to engage with any community on the web... or at the very least walk away with a Disqus t-shirt.
PS, stay-tuned for materials and things to do prior to the class so that you're ready to engage!
Having participated in and built online communities for myself, for non-profits, for my startups -- I'm now working at Disqus, the company that is at the forefront of online discussion and community.
I have a background in consulting, business development, social media, and internet startups. I love this stuff and look forward to showing both sides of community - taking the class from the user-facing tools to the back-end and all the magic in-between.
