Yes this could be a good idea, but at the same time not everybody that
will use this will use Facebook, so they might want Myspace or Bebo
maybie or many others,

but maybie what i would reccomend if they were going to go for this
idea, then we could spend yes alot more time on the code, but include
it for the big names, so myspace, facebook, msnlive, bebo... ( Cant
think of any more at the moment ) then we keep all users happy with
this.

Any responce is appretiated.

Regards,

Matt Bleasby.

(that's why we need openID!)
I think that the best approach would be similar to what the gaim and
kopete guys did: multiple accounts (with different protocols) in one
app.

if we use opensocial and facebook api we get the contact from all the
big names (facebook, google, myspace etc) except from  msn and yahoo I
guess but I guess there must be an API for those two. We could start a
lib with classes that implement the same tasks for various API maybe.

That is a great idea.  Most of my contacts are all on facebook.  This
app would make it incredibly easy to import all of my contacts.

I think it would be a good idea to show status updates in their info
as well. That way you have an idea of what they are up to if they
choose to us the status updates via facebook.

Why not start a project under code.google? I would be really
interested in this project, and I bet others would be too.

I'd seen this done before, except to a spreadsheet. I'll try to dig up
a link.

I'm sure the code could be adapted.

That sounds awesome. Would be better to take it to the next level and
allow you to interact with popular sites so you can make plans with
your friends.

Also, receiving contact updates would be key, if someone changes their
phone number on myspace or facebook, it gives you a notice to update
your contact.

I wouldn't mind helping with this one, let me know whats up. I believe
that monitoring the rss would be the best way to do this.

I like the idea a lot.  I have been trying to think of a Facebook
Application to create and really like the possibility of bringing
Android and Facebook together.  Having a contact list of

- Name
- Email
- Phone #
- Address - Integrate with GMaps
- Birthday - Integrate with GCalendar
- Profile Picture
- Employer

One of my biggest issues over the years has been only having one
contact list.  I would like to see multiple contact lists instead of
Groups.  A business contacts, personal contacts, private contacts,
school contacts, maybe facebook contacts, and an all contact minus the
private ones of course.

I am really interested in helping with a project.  Please let me know.

The new google OpenSocial can be used once its open to people, or you
can request a sandbox there too.

This will not leave the development specifc to the Social networks
like fb,bebo,etc.

You will have to keep in mind the number of application sharing done
in these social networks that consume alot of space and are memory
hogging, might as well, use a PC than hanging my smart phone/pda.
