The Herald launched a more interactive blog section Monday, called Disqus, which allows readers to comment easily through Google, Facebook, Twitter, other social media or a Disqus account.

Bloggers now have the option of sorting comments chronologically or by popularity, “liking” comments, viewing and commenting on replies to their posts, editing their profile and much more.

To comment, readers can log into their Google, Facebook, Twitter or other social media accounts, or sign up for a Disqus account by clicking “Login” at the top of the comment section and then “Register a new Disqus profile.”
