public interface ISocialProfileProvider
```
Social Profile Provider interface that provides methods to get social profile informations from a given user on a specific social network. This interface is implemented by AbstractSocialProfileProvider to provide a base implementation of a simple social profile provider. It's recommended to extends the AbstractSocialProfileProvider class to have better future compatibility.

This interface defines a life cycle that must be consider by the implementations. Therefore, to get information of the social profile, it's necessary to set the social network information on the social profile provider context by the method setSocialNetwork(ISocialNetwork).
