Searching and sending friend requests to your Twitter, Bebo, LinkedIn or Flickr friends manually via Facebook search is indeed a tiring task, especially if you’ve a huge network of friends. This is when FbFriendFinder comes in really handy.
Created by Amsterdam entrepreneur Roeland, FbFriendFrinder is a simple and secure tool that helps you to find friends from your other social networks on Facebook and add them as a friend. The process is definitely much faster and hassle-free as compared to the traditional method of adding friends on Facebook.
To start, select a network from which you want to import contacts. Currently, the service only supports 11 popular social networking websites such as BrightKite, Digg, Flickr, Foursquare, Imeem, Last.fm, LinkedIn, LiveJournal, Mobypicture, MySpace and last but not least micro-blogging platform Twitter. Alternatively, if your preferred social network isn’t listed, then you can copy paste friendlists from any source into the text field provided and the system will import contacts from there.
Next, connect your Facebook account and FbFriendFinder will start retrieving the profile pages of the friends from the networks you’ve selected earlier on.
However, the catch is that a small tip or ‘beer money’ to unlock the ‘real FbFriendFinder tool’. For my case, I’ve 222 people and to add them all, I would have to pay $3.35. Here’s the calculation: ceil ( 222 possible friends / 100 ) + $0.35 fee = $3.35
It’s definitely worth the price as the tool helps you bring all your contacts instantly, and without any much hassle at all.
