Hi,

I am working on the social networking application in Rails where I  
have to give option to the user using which he can import his profile  
from LinkedIn. I have no idea how to do this. Is there any gem  
avaliable which is doing this job. If not please suggest some solution  
for this problem.

Thanks,  
Ramu.
