I recently wrote a custom plugin for WordPress that created a carousel. I then decided to open source it, so, here it is: https://github.com/ahmednuaman/ahmeds-wordpress-carousel
Simply download it, stick it into your wp-content/plugins folder and off you go!
Good question my old fruity. I'm now sticking any post discussions on Google+. Why? Well simply it's better. WordPress's comment system isn't very elegant and nor are ones like Disqus or Livefyre, so to save hassle I've just shipped them off to a social network, like a real boss.
