  More accomplishments would be nice too. Maybe linked to how many footsteps you have done.

  Wow, I should umm updated that first paragraph, it didn't really read well. I would love for folders to be intergrated into friends, either in this update or another. It would be great to have folders for specific communities which my friends are from such as "Real Life, Vooks, Nintendo-X2, NeoGaf", or if they are friends for specific games like "Animal Crossing Buddies" etc.
