The secret sauce is the ease in which Twitter and Facebook allow you to connect to other people. I feel like social media stands on it's own without mobile. However, mobile is a huge part of the social networking equation and at this point it's hard to imagine one without the other. Being able to update and upload on the go increases the aforementioned ease of connection. I think it's also safe to say that social networks like Facebook and Twitter enhance mobile computing. The two go together like peas and carrots. :) I think we were already seeing Facebook start to explode before mobile became a reliable platform for social media.

I mean MySpace was a surge but it was mainly for young people. Now that anyone can participate quickly and easily from a mobile device, it seems the whole world has decided to jump in.
