Add activity indicator on accounts #63

We heard in some of our user interviews that it would be good to get some sort of activity indicator on accounts so that it is easier to figure out with whom an online dialogue could get started.

[ ] How to determine any account is active?
[ ] On which platforms can we get info like this?
[ ] How and where should we display this?

As a first step, we could add the date for the last public post by an account in a tooltip, or a popup, when hovering over that account icon.

If it is at all possible, this should be done without exposing the visitor of govdirectory as a client making requests to the social networks.
