Export Outlook Contacts To Google+

Google+ can now upload their Mac or Outlook address book to their social networking account. This apparently is a way to get more people to join the service, which still plays seconds to the more popular Facebook. There had been a rumor about the address book importing feature for some time now, and now that it’s out, you can access it through the Upload address book link in your account.

Windows Live Hotmail and Yahoo users might think that this is similar to the contact importer feature they’re used to, but they couldn’t be more wrong. And, being in its infancy, this addition still has a few bugs to be cleared of, although Google seems to be closely following all the feedback they’re getting from early users. You’re wondering if this will work to bring in your Facebook contacts. The answer is no.

Google’s main offer is for users who have friends on an address book that’s outside Google+. This offers a quick solution wherein the contacts can be uploaded to the Find and Invite page, after accessing the Upload address book button.

What you’ll need for this is an address book file on the computer. You can get this from the application you’re using, by following the instructions below.

Getting the Outlook address book

  • Go to the main menu and select File > Import/Export > Export.
  • Choose Comma Separated Values (Windows) > Contacts. After that, save the exported file in a secure location.

Getting the Outlook Express address book

  • From the main menu, choose File > Export > Address Book.
  • Choose Text File (Comma Separated Values) from the options shown.
  • Hit Export.

Getting the Thunderbird address book

  • Choose Address book, and then select Personal Address Book.
  • Go to Tools, then Export.
  • Save the address book file in the CSV format.

That was on how to use the new Google+ feature to import your address books from various other services. This lets you instantly connect to your Outlook contacts over the social networking platform, which is sometimes a better way to keep in touch than Outlook is. Some of the more casual conversations are better held in the former environment, which can make them livelier.
