Social computing, including personal sites, feeds, and communities, is just one of many components of SharePoint 2013, which has upgrades across its many modules, including search, document management and sharing, and business intelligence. Yammer, an enterprise social network that Microsoft acquired in July, is part of Redmond's master plan for SharePoint.
