The market had been fully saturated, the thinking went, dominated by the holy trinity of Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram. Turns out, rumors of social&#8217;s demise have been greatly exaggerated. Not only are we seeing the rise of innovative new social networks\u2014from the earshare of Clubhouse to the seamless interactivity of cloud gaming\u2014but having a social component has become a powerful acquisition and retention tool for every consumer product, across education, shopping, fitness, food, entertainment, and more.
