I have searched on net about Google profile import. I have successfully implemented importing of User Contacts into my application but I am not able to import Google Profile.

Please do the needful.
Thanks :)

Hi - the Google Buzz API should have what you're looking for:

Hope that helps.

HAy!! thanks, the link was useful , but the only problem that i came across this impementation is that ,the user's need to have a user profile created first and also need to keep his profile public , before the values can be accessed by us..So is their any way, to just get the user's First name and last name and place , without the user needing to create a PROFILE.
HeyItsMe007
No, I don't think that'll work. The API is specifically designed to access Profile data; if the user hasn't created a public profile, then there's nothing for the API to access. (And if they haven't created a public representation for their account, then we shouldn't give you programmatic ways to surface the name on an account since they haven't made that info public through us.)
