Social media has not only become viral on computers, with nearly every device capable of connecting to the Internet being able to access social services. Computers users mostly rely on web browsers for this task, but applications like Social Lite bring your preferred social network to your desktop for enhanced comfort.

The application comes in a small package that grants access to some of the most commonly used services today like Facebook, Twitter and your Google account. All of these features can easily be triggered with a click on the corresponding button and fills the main window with the dedicated social network features.

Needless to say that you need to have an account to benefit from what the application offers. The Google account feature is probably the most practical of all because it covers all Google services, including Google+, GMail, the popular homonimous search engine, which enables you to navigate on any desired web page, using context menu buttons for navigation.

On the other hand, Facebook and Twitter counterparts provide a somewhat limited approach on what can truly be done. For example, you can only get in touch with your friends by sending messages, with the Facebook chat system being unimplemented.

Another major disadvantage is the lack of a notifications feature, regardless of the active account. Even though the application can hide in the system tray, it does not come with an option to visually or acoustically warn you of received messages or posts.

If you want to fully enjoy the display, you might want to keep the main window frame as a side panel, because switching to a full screen view leaves a little something to be desired. However, this is only applicable to Facebook and Twitter, with Google once again profiting from a full screen view.

All things considered, Social Lite is a practical application that takes you on a ride with a few ups and downs. Connectivity and accommodation leave nothing more to be desired, but practicality is slightly reduced due to the lack of a notification system. On the other hand, it keeps you connected to major social networks and can be used for both leisure and business purposes.
