Lync in education site

Microsoft has developed software that embeds a social network into Sharepoint and Microsoft Office products. It's being marketed as a way to improve enterprise communications, and in education, "with its many opportunities to improve communication in schools, colleges and universities." You can try it by downloading software here (it took me a good ten minutes to find it on Microsoft's Byzantine web site) but note - this will involve downloading ther server, which might be more than you want. I was unable to find a way to simply try the functionality inside an existing MS application (I posted the question at the The UK Schools Blog so there may be a response by the time you read this). This post links to a Lync microsite describing how the system is used in education.
