We cover:

• How and why social platforms evolve (or disappear)• Lessons from MySpace, Vine, Tumblr, and other early platforms

• The rise of short-form video, stories, and social commerce

• Why being nimble and willing to pivot matters more than ever

• When brands should test new platforms — and when to step back

• How authenticity, personalization, and control are shaping the future of social
