Hello, world!

I’m happy to introduce myself as the newest addition to the Disqus team. I officially started this week as a software developer. 

The first tasks I’m working on are behind-the-scenes: setting up a better deployment system, and getting us running off an updated version of Django. Both of these should allow us to roll out new features, bugfixes, and enhancements significantly faster than before. They should be finished by the end of this week. After that, I will be joining Jason on the application code. I’m very impressed with how much he and Daniel have accomplished so far, and I’ll be trying hard to match up with that.

As you know, these are exciting times at Disqus. I love the product, the team, and the technology, so the decision to join them was easy. Since then, I’ve already had the pleasure of watching our total number of threads cross the one million mark. Of course, the whole team knows that our continued growth depends on keeping you, our users, completely happy with Disqus. So please let me know what’s on your mind — here’s to ten million. :)
