I know it puts a dandy little blue bar on the side like the "Current View"
and "My Contacts" but to what avail? I have yet to figure out how to
populate it or do anything with it other than change its name. The names are
not getting nicer....

It allows you to organize links to multiple contacts folders by putting them in different groups. If you have only one contacts folder, you don't need additional groups.

Ahhhhh. Yes, I see now. One must have something to move something. I
created another contacts folder and it goes there easily. THANK YOU
