It sure seems like Apple now has a social network:

  • Music: Ping
  • Gaming: Game Center
  • Updates: Twitter?
  • DM/IM: iMessage
  • Video Chat: FaceTime
  • Location: Family and Friends
  • Photos: Instagram?
  • Email: @me.com
  • LinkedIN: No, thankfully.

The point? At the end of the day Apple already has a social network that works vastly different than any other out there. Interestingly enough: you don’t really have to “join” any part of it, you just sign in with your Apple ID and go.
