Hello, I have got a funny Issue. I have got the oAuth working and got
the access token.

I am able to get the users contacts with the following URL.

https://www.google.com/m8/feeds/contacts/default/base?oauth_token=XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

But I want to get the current oAuth users ID, so that I can get the
other details for the User like picture etc.,

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks,
Muni.
