I wish I’d found this article when Google+ did its first “update” of the Contacts on my Android phone last year. I suddenly found that my Contacts list had expanded from a couple of dozen personal and professional entries to over five thousand! It took me hours when I finally got around to deleting all of the non-essential entries, and then Google+ did it again… and again. No more, now that I’ve read this clear, straight-forward article. Thank you.
