Steam is a digital distribution client that allows you to download and play a variety of PC games. However, Steam is more than just a store; it also allows you to keep a friends list. These can be friends you know personally, or friends you have met in-game. In addition to chatting with your friends through text, you may use voice chat as a group provided you have a microphone.
