Interactive noticeboards – improve your tribute and message pages

I’ve long been hunting for a decent interactive solution for tributes and user comments which is both easy to use and easy on the eye. Now I’ve found a site which ticks (almost) all the boxes on my wishlist.
Wallwisher.com is a free-to-register site which enables the easy creation of a noticeboard. Users can post messages to the board, which is embeddable on your site.
The only downsides I can see so far is that an extra click is required which takes users to a pop-up version of the wallwisher board. And adding photos requires you to place a path to the image, when I’d ideally like less web-savvy users to upload their snaps.
For text messages, this is a far more elegant solution than simple comments on an article. And with the option to link to videos and photos, this is a tool I’ll definitely experiment with.
