Likewise, social networking is also subject to several stages of its own life cycle.

Many are even screaming that the death of Google Reader is the death of RSS and the beginning (or end?) While RSS is great for B2B applications of sharing information and likely won't go away, from a consumer perspective I think email has won this battle.

We tend to use social networks as channels that feed into each other, with certain channels for posting content and others for re-publishing it. Widgets and apps can help pull a Twitter feed to a website, or a blog RSS feed to a LinkedIn profile or Facebook profile. The hub might represent a blog or Twitter feed, and all the spokes separate social media channels. Google+, however, does not allow Twitter feeds, Facebook activity streams or RSS feeds to be imported.

For a company that is engaged in the business of social media (which means sharing things), they recently restricted how developers can use their API.
