Ever met a geek with an AOL email account? Probably not. Ever wanted to migrate someone you know from AOL to Gmail? Your wife or Mom maybe, so you could share docs, calendars and stuff?? Well here is the easiest method, assuming of course that you have MS Outlook.
1. Fire up Outlook, you don't need to create an email account, creating a profile without email support works just fine.
2. Goto https://www.forge.funambol.org/download/ and download the AOL sync at the bottom of the page.
3. Run the program, goto Tools - Options - Account and fill in the AOL account username and password to sync from.
4. Click the Contacts button and watch your contacts magically appear in Outlook
5. From Outlook choose File - Export - to a file - CSV - Contacts.
6. From Gmail click contacts - import - choose file and there you go!
Thanks Funambol for the nice open source sync tool!
