We're working on bringing more social experiences to my employer's website, but the 3rd party interactions will eventually be only for the social login. Commenting, reviews, etc are all going to be done in-house this year, moving away from Gigya's tools. Their moderation tools are... subpar. And we need to have the comments locally anyway since we want to include them in the page's HTML for SEO purposes. Social login providers like Gigya certainly have their place - who wants to keep up with the constant stream of changes to FB, twitter, etc login APIs - but so many of them want to be the primary data source. This data is going to be the core of the platform going forward, so it's super important to own it all IMHO.
