facebook + gmail sync

[boobman]

anyone know if there is a way to get gmail to sync all of your "joined" contacts from facebook? And hopefully save their default pic as the contact picture id in gmail?

Also is there a way to sync 2 facebook accounts with your phone? I have a business fb and personal and would like to sync both.

Yes you can but to tell you how would depend on if you are using 2.1 or 2.2 because it is a little different. I'm using Froyo (2.2) right now and if you go to contacts, menu, get friends, it will allow you to add accounts so you can add multiple facebook accounts if you like. I believe on 2.1 if you go to contacts, menu, accounts, then you can do the same thing.

so i dont know if you can save the pic onto gmail but i when you get friends on the contacts page with one account then go to the Facebook app with another it may allow you to use two different account, but i dont know if it will make duplicates or if it combines them. idk if that will work or not

when doing this, I get a lot of "you can only have 5 accounts" or something like that.
when I look at people, they have like 2 fb, 2 google, and an exchange account.
I wish there were a better way to sync/merge across all 3 services or atleast google and exchange.
