Can you add a friend by steam id?

I wanna find my friend and I only have his steam id?
Is this possible?

Yup, use the magic formula and then put the final number after
http://steamcommunity.com/profiles/number-goes-here

STEAM_0:0:123456 = 0 + 76561197960265728 + (123456*2)
STEAM_0:1:123456 = 1 + 76561197960265728 + (123456*2)

Steam ID as in: STEAM_0:1:12280641?

Use that to convert it to a profile ID and then add your friend via Steam Community,
http://steamcommunity.com/profiles/ProfileIDhere

If its something else.. err I dunno

Edit: Oh noes, semi beaten.

I'm guessing you needed STEAM_ in front of it. He hasn't setup his profile, so it may or may not be your friend.

If you have his SteamID, you most likely have played with him on a server. The friends window allows you to view the list of players you've played with recently. Just find him there.
