A few weeks ago I blogged about the current beta of Social Networking in MSN Spaces for our Australian users. What I didn't mention is that just as most features in MSN Spaces are integrated with Windows Live Messenger, so also is the Friends list feature. Australian users of Windows Live Messenger will have three integration points for interacting with the Friends List. The first is that one can right-click on Messenger contacts and select "View->Friends List" to browse their Friends List. Another integration point is that one can respond to pending requests from people to add them to your Friends List directly from Messenger client (this is also the case with other features like Live Contacts).  Finally, one can also browse the Friends List from their Contact Card. Below is a screenshot of what happens when an Australian user right-clicks on one of their Messenger contacts and selects "View->Friends List". I can't wait till we finally ship this feature to all our users.

NOTE: There is a known bug that stops the Friends list from showing up if you are using the Internet Explorer 7 beta.
