So let\u2019s start with the procedure wherein you can compile all your friends at one place. There are two phases wherein in first phase we will see how you can export facebook contacts and save to Yahoo, G Mail or even Hot mail. And then later we will see how you can import bulk contacts to Google Talk. What finally you can achieve with this task is that you can simply chat with your facebook friends in with the help of G Talk.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Procedure to export Facebook contacts and save them to Yahoo \/ Gmail \/ Hotmail:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>First you need to go to <a href=\"address.yahoo.com\" target=\"_blank\"><strong>address.yahoo.com<\/strong><\/a> and then you will see a screen as shown below after you sign in to your Yahoo account.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.amitbhawani.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/11\/select-medium.png\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-16448\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.amitbhawani.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/11\/select-medium.png?resize=379%2C267\" alt=\"select medium\" width=\"379\" height=\"267\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>After signing in, all you will find a screen as shown above and now click on <strong>facebook<\/strong> icon and after clicking on facebook icon a new window will be opened up where in you need to authorize the sharing by clicking on <strong>OK<\/strong> as shown below:<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.amitbhawani.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/11\/share-with-yahoo.png\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-16449\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.amitbhawani.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/11\/share-with-yahoo.png?resize=389%2C124\" alt=\"share with yahoo\" width=\"389\" height=\"124\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.amitbhawani.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/11\/share-with-yahoo.png?w=605&amp;ssl=1 605w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.amitbhawani.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/11\/share-with-yahoo.png?resize=300%2C95&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.amitbhawani.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/11\/share-with-yahoo.png?resize=150%2C47&amp;ssl=1 150w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 389px) 100vw, 389px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Now as soon as you click on OK, within few seconds you will receive a screen saying that your contacts have been successfully imported.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.amitbhawani.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/11\/contacts-imported.png\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-16451\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.amitbhawani.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/11\/contacts-imported.png?resize=184%2C113\" alt=\"contacts imported\" width=\"184\" height=\"113\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.amitbhawani.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/11\/contacts-imported.png?w=184&amp;ssl=1 184w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.amitbhawani.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/11\/contacts-imported.png?resize=150%2C92&amp;ssl=1 150w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 184px) 100vw, 184px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Once the import is done, click <a href=\"http:\/\/address.yahoo.com\/?_src=&amp;VPC=tools_export\"><strong>on this<\/strong><\/a> to download a CSV file as shown below which has all the email addresses of all your Facebook contacts to your desktop.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.amitbhawani.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/11\/Export.png\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-16452\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.amitbhawani.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/11\/Export.png?resize=276%2C194\" alt=\"Export\" width=\"276\" height=\"194\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.amitbhawani.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/11\/Export.png?w=408&amp;ssl=1 408w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.amitbhawani.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/11\/Export.png?resize=300%2C211&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.amitbhawani.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/11\/Export.png?resize=150%2C105&amp;ssl=1 150w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 276px) 100vw, 276px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Most importantly while importing the contacts to Gmail, assign it to some  group which will help you easily add them in Google Talk which we will see at a later stage.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>How to import bulk contacts to Google Talk.<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Now, go to G Mail account and compose a new email.
