There is a new module to connect Social Networks with Drupal.

Gigya Socialize provides a single API that aggregates authentication and social APIs from Facebook Connect, MySpace ID, Twitter, and OpenID webmail providers including Google, Yahoo, and AOL. The Gigya module for Drupal is fully configurable, requiring little time to install.

The Gigya Socialize module makes it easy for Drupal site owners to:

  1. Authenticate users via Facebook, MySpace, Twitter and other OpenID providers enabling an increase in site registration rate by more than 30%.
  2. Increase user acquisition by enabling users to invite friends to the site, or to share site content or a specific event.
  3. Increase site traffic by sending user status updates, tweets and newsfeed events to social networks. Drupal site owners can couple user actions on the site with sending social network status updates, tweets, and publishing newsfeed items.
  4. Customize the user experience by making it easy for sites to integrate user profile and social graph data
  5. Easily configure the user experience, design, and module functionality using the Drupal administration panel.
