    Interesting. Still, it seems to me like it's only a matter of time that somebody (Google?) develops an app that does it. It merely has to:
    1. Fire up every time you open FB
    2. Log the names of the first 2 people who appear in the Contacts pane.
    3. Follow the trail to those Contacts' FB pages.
    4. Log their location and picture in a local database.
    5. Repeat the process over and over until it's captured everybody.

    Then a week or two later the app submits the complete list of candidates to Google+, where it's compared to their database. G+ then presents you with a list of contacts for you to check/uncheck if you think they are matches.

    Google is so damned smart. I'll be pretty surprised if they haven't figured out a way to do this eventually.

    It's Google's version of Facebook.
