Hello Tabitha and wellington testers!

The usefulness of the friends group is currently very limited (if
any). The HIG explains a bit what it's supposed to be like when
implementation is completed:

The activity under each XO in the friends view, is the one they are
currently using. Clicking on it should perhaps join the activity (not
implemented), I'm ccing Eben to confirm that.

Thanks!
Marco
