Dis.cuss.it API Test Harness
A little while ago I mentioned work was under way to produce a test harness for our API. Today I’d like to unveil the harness, hop along to http://developer.dis.cuss.it to see it in action. The harness is designed to show and document the methods exposed by our API.
The API uses oAuth for authentication so before you get stuck into writing lines of code get yourself an application key from here.
The Dis.cuss.it Engine widget and Dis.cuss.it Live Moderator were written using our API. We’d love to see what you can build so get in touch with your ideas or creations.

Dis.cuss.It Live Moderator v1
Say hello to the Dis.cuss.it Live Moderator. This FREE application allows you to watch your comment streams and receive desktop notifications for new messages as they are posted.
New comments can be ‘Approved’, ‘Withdrawn’, marked as spam, replied to or even re-tweeted directly from the application. The Live Moderator can support multiple blogs allowing you to aggregate all your comments for easier moderation. To open a comment in thread view simply double click on it and a new column will open up highlighting the new message within the thread.
Currently we just support Wordpress and our own dis.cuss.it engine (which don’t forget can be used on pretty much any web page, or built into your application via the API), but we are working on Blogger support as I type. If you use another blogging or comments platform that you would like to see supported by the Live Moderator, let us know and we will look into it.
The application is an Adobe Air application and therefore runs on PC/Mac or Linux.
