How to Find Friends From Gmail Contact List Who are on Facebook and Vice Versa

When a new user signs up for Facebook, he is prompted to use the friend finder that allows the user to find the friends who are on his email contact list. Facebook’s Friend Finder is integrated with the major email services like Hotmail, Yahoo, Gmail etc and makes it easier to add your friends to your Facebook profile . But last December, Google made some slight changes in its Terms of Service saying that any service that accesses Google’s Contacts API (that supports OAuth ) will need to offer reciprocity. As Facebook doesn’t allow that, you won’t be able to directly import the contacts to Facebook by direct communication with Gmail. But you can export your Gmail contacts and then import them to Facebook. You can also pull contacts from Facebook to Gmail with Yahoo as the intermediate between them. Facebook had added a direct link to export all Gmail contacts but now that has been removed. So you’ll need to export the contacts using Gmail’s interface. To do this, click on “Contacts” o...

There is a feeling that when you are online, you are anonymous, you are free to say, to do, or to blog anything. Partially, that is true. Mainly because there are so many online records, that nobody really cares about what you say. Definitely, unless you blog about terrorist activities and create guide on how to make a nuclear bomb at convenience of your home. But in case somebody really cares of what you say and who you are, your anonymity might be really stripped, and you may face the organization or the person in public, whom you never expected to meet other than through virtual pathways of Blogosphere. Presenting an article from ArsTechnica on the topic. US courts have historically looked on anonymous bloggers and commenters with a sympathetic eye, but there are exceptions. A Tennessee judge denied a blogger's motion to quash a subpoena to reveal his identity last week, and he also denied a motion to dismiss the case. With few other options available to him (or her), the blogg...
