Super-size your comments! By offering persistent identity, reply-by-email, and integration with social networks, IntenseDebate helps publishers engage their readership. The result: commenters have a richer experience, and publishers see a dramatic jump in page views!
The Intense Debate comment system is built to enable conversation
within the comment section. No longer do you have to try to follow the
maze of conversations happening in the comments by means of "@
username" or "@ comment number". With Intense Debate the comments are
threaded, allowing you to reply directly to an individual comment. The
replies are then indented at different levels to make it easier to
follow the various conversations.
With Intense Debate, a user can set up an avatar to be shown whenever
they make a comment on every site we power. Also find out more about
the other commenters around you. Every user has a menu button providing
links to their blog(s), profiles on other websites, and rss feeds of
their comments. It's never been easier to connect with the other
members of the conversation.
Tom has more than 20 years' experience in finance and high tech. Prior
to joining IntenseDebate, Tom served as CEO at ClickCaster, where he
helped reposition the company and guide it to profitability.
Previously, Tom founded and was President and CEO of Net Infrastructure
Corporation for 6 years. Tom holds a Bachelor of Science in Computer
Science degree from the University of Washington, and a Master of
Science degree in Engineering-Economic Systems from Stanford University.

I think both of us are executing well. What I know that differentiates us:
- I hear out in the blogosphere is that many prefer our look and fee;
- many value our ability to import comments, which most of our competitors either don't do at all or do incompletely;
- our integration with twitter, which let's the world know that you've made a comment, is a pretty powerful and quite cool feature, that only we have
I hope this helps!

Cheers!
