Gigya, the largest widget network, has raised $11 million in Series C funding, bringing its fundraising total since its 2006 launch to $23.5 million, Mark Hendrickson at TechCrunch reports.

The new funding will go toward widget distributor Wildfire, the only service which Gigya currently monetizes, and Socialize, a competitor with Google Friend Connect.
