Social networks (optional)
The Social Networks application allows you
to quickly view your friends' updates, and
make your own updates without leaving the
desktop. You can receive notifications and
status updates directly to your desktop, using
the sidebar to monitor multiple social
networks (Facebook, YouTube, Flickr and
Twitter).
Note: The Social Networks application is a pre-installed option and
may not be installed on all computers.

Networks key, press it to open the Social Networks application.
