And, he’s right.
It’s a social media tool that existing social networks use to communicate and grow and that people use to form new social networks.
Duh.
Quick vocab lesson
Social network = a network of people who interact with each other, often around a particular activity eg a book club or knitting circle.
Social media = any communication tool, usually web-based, that facilitates people communicating with each other eg Facebook or Twitter.
Social networks have existed as long as people have. Social media is the new thing.
