Display the conversations instead of the list of user within the sidebar

Is there a way to display the existing conversations instead of the list of user? Because, for instance if we have 5000 users, that would have no sense to display all the users within the sidebar, having a conversation table, which would contain users relationship(I mean users who have started any conversation in the past), that would be much more easier.
