Connectors

## Connectors
Among these addons there are also the [connectors](https://github.com/friendica/friendica/blob/master/doc/Connectors.md) for various other networks
(e.g. Twitter, pump.io, Google+) that are needed for communication when the
protocoll is not supported by Friendica core (DFRN, OStatus and Diaspora).

For communication with contacts in networks supporting those (e.g. GNU social,
Diaspora and red#matrix) you just need to access the page configuration in the
Admin panel and enable them. For networks where communication is only possible
the API access to a remote account, you need to activate the fitting connectors.
