How to import Facebook Friends in Google+

Mr.Facebook tries hard to prevent people from migrating to Google+. At the beginning, it was possible to export Facebook directly or via Yahoo. Facebook has stopped those possibilities. But there is still one way, how to do it, in several minutes.
  1. You need an Android smartphone. If you don't have a physical one, you may try the emulator for PC or Mac (not tested).
  2. Enable Facebook on your smartphone with complete synchronization. You Facebook friends will appear in your Android Contacs.
  3. Export you Contacts into sdcard. They will be written into file 00001.vcf (or so).
  4. Copy that file into your PC/Mac and import it into your Google Mail.
  5. All your Facebook friends will then appear also in your Google Find People / Gmail list.
