• Accessing Twitter profiles of your contacts: All the contacts in your account can have a field where you specify their Twitter ID. By creating a link for Twitter, you can directly go to the contact's twitter profile in a single click. Example: The link can be: https://twitter.com/#!/${Contacts.Twitter ID}
• View maps: Zoho CRM provides the Locate Map option to view the address of the contacts in Google Maps. If you want to view the address location using some other applications, then you can define a link.
