PRESENTATION: Building for Success and Failure with Disqus by Jonathon Hill, http://jonathonhill.net/ and http://twitter.com/compwright
Description: Disqus provides an exceptionally effective store for user-generated content, but how do you protect against API failures or deluges of heavy traffic, while maintaining Disqus as the single source of truth? We'll discuss a caching strategy and walk through some of the nuances of the Disqus API.
