I'm confused about this definition of social network. GitHub is a place where we work. I have thousand of commits and 1 actual friend. Am I the only one or are we changing the meaning of social?

You are right. This is marketing talk. Github should have a chat/forum functionality to get into social network tools.

My feeling is that this is more a move to fight competitors.
