  <title>Why add an account?</title>

  <p>Adding your online accounts brings your choice of services like calendar,
  chat, and e-mail straight to your desktop and makes the information of the
  services a seamless part of your user experience. By adding accounts you can
  easily keep in touch using services from different accounts, like chats, at
  the same time. Just set up your online accounts once and every time you start
  your computer all the accounts and services that you have added are ready to
  use.</p>

  <p>See <link xref="accounts-which-application"/> for information on which
  applications can access which online services.</p>
