Submitted by booboo99 on February 5, 2008 - 10:36am.
hey pals, I recently used HITS and scanned someones page for trackers and ggya.com came up. so i shot over there and wanted to see how good they track...I spent about 45 minutes tryng to figure out what the hell a widget s and how to use ths damn thing as a myspace tracker, it seemed like everything on that site was in complex computer language, i really couldnt figure out how to do anytnhing. does anytone know how to use this as a myspace tracker, or if t even works as one (does it show ip's). I have trackspace, mixmap, and have had a few others I dont know why it was so hard for me to understand that site. the person whos using it isnt exactly a genus so mabye someone else posted gigya on there ste as a comment or something?

Here's my post from the other thread:
I think I can give you a definite answer to this question, as I work for Gigya. Gigya develops software for widget distribution on social networks so people can easily install, say for example, The Colbert Report countdown widget on their MySpace profile. Our system generates reporting that can tell our partners how many people have installed their widgets, which countries they are from, and to which social sites the widgets have been installed onto, but nothing detailed about individual users.
Gigya is NOT a MySpace profile tracker like ProfileSnitch

I think we reached the conclusion in another thread that gigya only gives info on how many times a widget was loaded and nothing more than that. A widget is a "thingy" that you put on your profile. Clear enough? Ok well, stuff like video/music players, clocks, certain animations and all kinds of other stuff. On myspace they're usually flash objects.

i had the same problem. on myspacescrape, i checked a target's profle and gigya popped up as one of their trackers, thought last week it hadn't shown up. they must've just gotten it, and i am nervous as to what kind o info gigya can provide if it has tracked someone. i couldn't figure out that site for the life of me. do they just get IP's, or do they provide more info?
what the heck is a widget?
