People hub

  • Go to contacts to see your friends contact info from every account you have signed into. You can organize the list the way you like by filtering it by account or hiding the contacts without phone numbers. Your own contact card is also here.

The groups make it easy to see social updates from just the people you add to the group and to send mails or messages to all of them at once.
