Google Adds A Social Layer to Android With People App, Social API
Google is strengthening the social layer in Android’s address book in the latest version of its OS through a new People app. Unsurprisingly, Facebook is conspicuously absent.
The new People app, which comes with the next version of the Android OS called Ice Cream Sandwich, connects everyone in a person’s address book to their presences on social networks like LinkedIn and Twitter. You can click into your contact list to pull up a friend’s latest status updates or shared content from other social networks.
