Corporate content aggregation, and new flocks of sheep to drink from those content streams are one phenomenon.
"Entrepreneurs" re-inventing IRC every two weeks with more emoticons is another. Can we simplify every "internet innovation" into three bullets?
1) threaded forums -> TCP -> Usenet -> every news service ever (time-buffered data delivery)
2) "get hails" -> UDP -> IRC -> every chat service ever (real-time data delivery)
3) hypertext -> HyperCard -> WWW -> links (glue that connects everything)
And I'll argue "content aggregation" is just a fancy

(Getting an arbitrary application to understand it is running on multiple GPUs is a whole separate problem...)
