You can add Twitter and Facebook profiles.

 * The fields you need to fill.

## Installation

Upload the plugin to wp-content/plugins or install it using the automatic installer.

Activate the plugin. Once the plugin is activated it will delete YM and AIM fields
in your profile and add fields for Twitter and Facebook profiles. The plugin checks
if the fields are empty or not, and if they are empty, it wont display them.

## FAQ

  Can you add [insert here your social media site of choice]?

No, I will like to keep it simple. But I guess you can customize it to fit your 
needs, the code is pretty straight forward.
