Linking Twitter contacts to "People"

[hcole623]

When editing a contact in "People" you have the option to link to a facebook profile, is there any way in sense to link to a Twitter account so that their Twitter updates will show up in friendstream and in the contact list?

I might be wrong, but I believe you must have a Twitter account synced on your phone before this option is available.

yeah I do have it set up and checked under the sync options, still no contact matching option though

I was able to get it to sync my twitter to my contacts, BUT now there are certain one's in my contacts that I dont want there. And I cant figure out a way to delete them, highlighting then pressing in hold only brings up the Vcard option. So now there are celebrities in my phonebook=annoying.

Hi. Been trying to find out how to link twitter to people as well. How were you able to do it? Thanks.

I do this using the Twitter for Android app. Once you install it, you have the option to sync contacts and then it will try to link them based on e-mail. You can also manually link if the auto one fails. Overall has worked fairly well for me.
