Use Impulse to manage friends.
Introduction
With Impulse finally here, it's time to start a new set of guides and walkthrough to make sure you are getting the most out of Impulse. I thought I would start it off with going over the Community features, specifically the Friends feature. I really like this as I can keep tabs with what my friends are doing and other activity.
Impulse Community
When you hit the Community tab, you will see a list in the upper right hand corner which shows which of your current friends are online, and also shows you any pending friend requests.
Clicking 'manage' will take you the friends request screen where you can review the pending requests you have. As you see in the screenshot below, I have three pending requests. From here you can choose to accept the friend request or just ignore it.
That's the basics of managing your friend requests, so now lets move on to how to actually request someone to be a friend. I noticed one person wasn't on my list, so I headed over to Bebi Bulma's profile and blog. In the upper right hand section you should see a link to add a friend, so just click that and a friend request will be sent.
You also have the opportunity to send a note with that request as well.
Once you have all your friends organized, you can click the 'Friends' tab at the bottom of the Community section. This will give you an overview of your friends activity. It will show you who your friends are making friends with, and also show you comments and blog posts they have made. It's a fantastic way to keep up to date on what your friends are doing.
You can also see a more detailed list about your friends, including links to their blog and profile by selecting the 'Friends list' or 'Dashboard'. You will also have the ability to remove friends from here also if you wish.
Conclusion
