20,000 foot view: This report maps how social platforms are used by consumers, looking at behaviours such as talking to friends, shopping / browsing, and creating content. It further looks at how this differs with age. The current marketplace is maturing, with platforms now either pursuing a “do everything well” or a “do one thing the best” approach. While both can be successful, lessons can be drawn from the potential pitfalls of each approach for social media apps as well as content-focused entertainment platforms looking to incorporate social into their own offerings.
