About People
With the People app, you can sync your phone with contacts from your Google
Account, computer, and Facebook. You can also sync with work contacts from the
Exchange ActiveSync Server in your workplace. To find out how, see “Ways of getting
contacts into your phone.”
Per contact, link the person’s information from all these different sources as one so
you won’t have duplicated entries in your contacts list. To find out how to link, see
“Merging contact information”.
And that’s not all. You can manage your communications with your contacts via
phone, messaging, and email without the need to jump from one app to another. After
you’ve linked contacts to their social network accounts like Facebook, Twitter, and
Flickr, you’ll also see their updates and events from these accounts all in one place.
