Hi,

I'm looking at the new Twitter app, it makes interesting use of the
contacts system. I'm not quite sure how it works, was looking if
anyone can give a hint.

I have a wiped nexus one, with no contacts in my contacts book. I used
the option in the Twitter app called:

  Sync Contacts -> Sync all

this has the effect of pulling all the people I follow on Twitter into
my contacts book, and putting a Twitter link in the contacts screen,
something like:

   John Doe
   Nickname
      johndoe2000
   Twitter profile
      last tweet here, click to launch Twitter app

I'm wondering what methods they're using in the contacts API to do
this?  After the contacts are added, I cannot add a phone # etc to
these entries, which is kind of bad - wouldn't the end user want to be
able to update a contact's profile with a phone # etc, after pulling
in from Twitter?

Thank you
