I believe that's at least the initial target audience.  There's also
nothing preventing us from educating the users on basic practices
while they use the box, though.  Think of that awesome 5 minute
distributed-social-web animation from a few weeks ago.  If we did
something like that when the user first stumbled into the "add a
friend" area of the box, a quick review of the basics would probably
help.  As long as it's not as annoying as Clippy.
