Facebook,Android- How to get friends birthday from facebook

Question

I tried to goto lots of questions on this forum but could not find one useful so i decided to ask one myself.

I want to pull the birthday's of all the friends in the users friend list. After going through a lot of stuff i found there are 2 ways to do that

1. Graph API
2. FQL Query

So, my questions are

Q1. which one of them is better/easy to integrate in the app.

Q2. http://developers.facebook.com/docs/tutorials/androidsdk/3.0/scrumptious/ is this tutorial useful for what i want to do.

Q3. If i use Graph API/FQL Query , could you please give me a link which is helpful or a Code snippet

Thanks In Advance,

Eriz

You probably want to go for the Graph API as this is usually a more simple approach.

You can check out this link to see how retrieving a list of friends are completed in API 3.0.

Hope this helps.
