The new map has significant updates and revisions for 2013. The social media world is always evolving, meaning that platforms which were once “the next big thing” such as: Apple’s Ping or Google’s Wave are in the past. New sites that are more useful have recently been added.

The map also features changes in the category level, such as: social commerce, social recruiting and enterprise social. These are just a few examples of some big additions to the map. We have also included new categories that have grown to the point where each get its own category.
