10 Years in Social Media
It’s our birthday! And there’s a good chance you found out via one of two social networks. However, back in 2004, when Engadget launched, Facebook was in its infancy and Twitter still hadn’t hatched. While the former catered to Harvard’s elite, Friendster and Myspace were still schooling us in the ways of social networking. Fast-forward 10 years, and Friendster is a social gaming platform, Myspace is a sounding board for musicians, Facebook and Twitter are both publicly traded companies and hashtags aren’t just a thing, they’re an epidemic.
Every week in March, we’ll bring you a new story that explores how the social landscape has changed since our inception. So grab a glass of bubbly, raise a toast and dig in. Here’s to 10 Years in Social Media!
