Much ado about very little
Saying "the Gigya module makes it easy for Drupal site owners" to do anything is a vast overstatement.
This module provides login authentication from the social networks. That's all. If you plan on doing ANYTHING ELSE with this module - the fancy comment tracking, sharing, rating, activity feeds or anything else you see in the Gigya API docs - be prepared to spend many dozens of hours trying to figure out how to make the lame and skeletal examples in the Gigya API play nicely with the Drupal system. You will not get help from Gigya staff, either. They don't really understand Drupal.
It is recommended that you be a Drupal NINJA - not just an experienced user but a serious code hacker - you should be well seasoned in Javascript and PHP, and enjoy solving complex problems with little or no guidance. I can't believe people PAY for this crap!
