Hi.
Your contact list for MSN, AIM or what you have should already be visible in 
the window. To go to the Facebook and twitter features, go to the "window" menu 
and arrow down until you hear "your username on twitter" or "your user name on 
Facebook". "Your user name" will be the name you use on the respective 
services. Now, hit vo+spacebar and a new window called "your username on 
service" (where service is either Facebook or Twitter) will be brought up. I 
haven't as of yet found out what way is the best for reading these windows, 
groups or dom and as i say, you appear to be able to comment on others posts 
but not be able to write your own. You can write a post alright, but there's no 
button that VO can see to send the post off to the service. I have filed a bug 
about that and given it a high priority. Let's hope they do something about it, 
since this is the cleanest interface to Facebook i've seen for the Mac yet.
