Gigya Socialize provides a single API that aggregates authentication and social APIs from Facebook Connect, MySpace ID, Twitter, Google, Yahoo, and AOL. The new Socialize module for Drupal is fully configurable and installs in minutes with no programming.

With the Socalize module for Drupal, your visitors can authenticate on your site via leading social APIs, increasing site registrations and streamlining the process of creating and sharing user profiles. Most importantly, you’ll improve your visitors’ user experience, eliminating barriers to community participation on your sites.

During the Webinar we will provide a walk through of the Socialize plug-in and tips for implementing it on your Drupal site. Key take ways will include best practices on how you can:

• Promote user activity on social networks by enabling users to invite friends to share content or a specific event. Case studies have shown that on average, each item shared generates 40 unique impressions and 28 unique visits back to the publisher site.
• Increase site traffic by sending user status updates and newsfeed events to social networks - Drupal site owners can virally promote their site by coupling user actions on the site with Social Network Status Updates, Tweets, and posting Newsfeed items. Users can also invite their friends, helping drive traffic to the site.
• Easily configure the user experience, design, and module functionality using the Drupal administration panel.
