How to import your Facebook friends to Google+

So you have decided to make Google+ your primary social network and you would like to shift, but all your social friends are still on Facebook and Google+ does not give you the option to bring all your friends directly over. So if you want to shift, import or bring all your friends over from Facebook there is a workaround and you can try the below. The method being mentioned is to use Hotmail or Yahoo to import all your contacts over and then transfer your contact list into Google+.


How to import your Facebook contact list to Google+
1. Sign into Google plus
2. Click on 'view and edit' found on the top right.
3. Click on 'find and invite'
4. You will find options to add friends from your Yahoo contact list of your Hotmail Live Hotmail account
5. Open your Yahoo or Hotmail live account and export your friends to the Windows live Hotmail account
6. Go to "Contacts" and click on "Manage." and then on "Export" option
7. Login to your Google+ account and click on the 'find and invite' tab and then click on either the Yahoo or Windows Live Hotmail account icon
8.  Sign in to your Yahoo or Windows Live account and allow Google+ to connect your Yahoo or Hotmail account with your Google+ profile
9. Once authorization is granted, e-mail addresses of all your Facebook friends will be added to your Google+ account.
10. Your done.
