iTunes 10 - iTunes gets social
- Release date: Sept. 1, 2010
Apple's first attempt at a social network came as part of iTunes 10. It was called "Ping," and it was a massive failure.
Steve Jobs said Ping would help people discover new music and communicate with artists. The thinking, supposedly, was, "Hey, if it didn't work for MySpace, it ... will work for Apple?"
Nope. Ping was killed two years after it was launched.
