Altough the setting will work but why user has to do all these setting. Even if somebody is a experience then also, one need to search or open some webpage to enter these setting. If user install facebook plugin then he/she will facebook in drop down menu. all the need to enter his username and password. I have observed so many such initial level hurdle for common persons and configured schoolOS. SchoolOs has these plugins pre-installed. Think for simplicity and not complexity. -- ┌─────────────────────────┐ │ Narendra Sisodiya │ http://narendrasisodiya.com └─────────────────────────┘ -- l...@iitd - http://tinyurl.com/ycueutm
