Title:
Show contact details from social accounts
Status in Ubuntu UX:
New
Status in address-book-app package in Ubuntu:
New
Bug description:
As a phone user
I want to easily look up contacts that I have either in my address book, or on a Social Account (LinkedIn, Xing, Facebook, etc.)
So that I don't have to add/merge all contacts to/with my address book that I want to find
And the number of pure phone address book contacts stays small (only the essential contacts)
And I don't have to do time-consuming research for contacts and their details.
Details
----------
Phone address books usually show only contacts you have stored on your phone or a cloud account (like Google Mail or the like). It would make a lot of a difference if Ubuntu's address book could integrate seamlessly with Social Accounts, and pull contact details from there without necessarily adding them or merging them with the phone contacts.
Motivation: I don't want a million contacts in my personal address
book, but sometimes I want to get in touch with or look up contacts
that I have on LinkedIn, Xing, Facebook, etc. A convenient, quick
lookup would be awesome.
