 The first generation of integrating the social experience into Firefox will consist of four touch points.
-* Integration of persistent social notifications into the Firefox toolbar.

 With these touch points, users will be able to carry their social presence and tools with them, outside of confines of specific social websites. No longer will users need to be visiting a social provider to share or recommend something within that service, nor will they have to navigate the NASCAR-like mess of social widgets accompanying so much Web content. Users will be able to chat and get updates of various kinds from where ever they happen to be on the Web.

 * A Google+ user wants to quickly open a chat without chasing down her buried Google+ tab in Firefox. She clicks her buddy's name in the Firefox social sidebar and it pops out a chat Window.
-A Facebook user, just about to hit the 1,000 friends mark doesn't want to miss that incoming friend request. Because he's got Firefox's new social features, he'll get a notification in his Firefox toolbar when any new friend requests, new messages, or notifications arrive.

 |Feature dependencies=This feature depends on:
-. The Social API back-end implementation

 |Feature non-goals=Mixing and matching different parts from different social providers is a non-goal. Users must be able to switch between providers, but it is not required that users be able to display touch points from multiple providers simultaneously.
 |Feature functional spec=The bulk of the functional spec is described at the [https://wiki.mozilla.org/Labs/SocialAPI Social API doc] and the newsgroup post [groups.google.com/group/mozilla.dev.apps.firefox/browse_thread/thread/1e4048b16c7a6705/7e392549d34e6c62

 |Feature implementation plan=The initial implementation will be delivered as a bundled add-on. Eventually the Social API back-end and front-end will be built-in.
