[orkut-developer] thousands of friends, user selection.

[David Wilson (entertainment cloud)]

Hi,

If a user has thousands of friends, what's the best way to handle user
selection of one of them?

I understand how to page though them, but this seems poor if the user
wants a name near the end of the alphabet. I could implement an ajaxy
picker, but this requires all the friend data to be fetched before it
can be used; this seems laggy and wasteful.

If it possible to request filter beginning with 'z' for instance, or
is there an entirely better way to go about this?

Thanks.
