ag, this site is borderline creep and cool at the same time.-
creepy for me, there's so much of me there when I dig in and also photos of people I know that have been involved in optimizing sites with me. The way we have worked is a little unusual and it has aggregated all sorts of things
-
the whole pictures thing is pretty dam creppy. I can take seeing words about me but random pictures... creepy status
-
-
It found my blog, and that's pretty much it.-
but everyone is scared of 13th Fridays
-
Actually, I searched my real name.
My nickname gives even less results.
-
-
OMG Found pics of me and links with my name from all over the place :O
One even shows my name and my ip addy! That can't be allowed can it??????????????????????????????????????? -
-
Absolutely no results for me! phew!-
One result for me. Fortunately, you need to scrutinize the site to find it.
-
-
I am not even on the page at all. Funny in deed
-
i would have been really happy if nothing but my blogs was found on web of me.. -
Yeah, nothing at all for me. I'm a nonentity, it seems. -
I share a first and last name of someone famous, so thankfully everything on there is about him!!
-
*racks brains trying to think of someone famous called 'rory'*
-
Wasn't that the mom's name on "Gilmore Girls"
wife watched the show... yeah, that's my story -
Rory Calhoun?
-
-
Nothing on me! Big Brother missed -
If your name is Michael Jackson, you are perfectly safe! -
Apparently, I don't exist, which doesn't surprise me. I've had that feeling for years.
-
There is a Saint John Fisher? Crazy!
Couldn't find anything on me. Guess not putting my real zip code on anything paid off
Wait... I put it on there! Damn, I knew it was a trap! -
hmmm...this is a bit invasive. especially if it shows pics of you in your 'not so best moments' -
Ok no me I am not important enough to be there lol Teay now on to my ex to see if I can find any dirt on him-
Ok let me re state this. My name has nothing show up of value but if you type waylandcook in then it shows every blog I have left a comment in all my life.

Got it. Whitepages had me listed. And good thing you spelled my name wrong
-
Dang! Name removed from comment above -- I'm sorry
-
@TT -- thank you for all these links TT, I really appreciate them. I was on there a LOT but nothing that I hadn't put up by choice. But it is still nice to have the links. -
@Robin
You're welcome. -
it's ok TT. It's not like my name isn't all over my site or anything
-
- Thanks for being gracious.
-
-
Way too many gals with my same name If I search my 2 last names I get 0 hits -
There were a lot of Robin Eastons but most were men but a lot of west coast Robin Eastons.
-
Whoa it found naked pictures of me!
Not really.
Nothing that surprised me came up.-
yes , i posted them on one of my sites
-

I vote creepy and cool as well. Fortunately, my real name is dead common (Jane Doe, if you must know.) The good news is there are a lot of Jane Does out there. The bad news is that some of them appear to be in, shall we say, the personal service industry.
Just the same, it is very interesting to see how being referenced somewhere in a newspaper article or magazine will pop up on the list. It is very current. I found a hit from yesterday that I knew nothing about.
This certainly points to the value of using Google Alerts and other such services.-
- I also have very common given names. I'm a member of a huge extended family wherein my aunts, uncles and cousins many of whom are are all of similar age also bear the same names. As a child I didn't think much about this because none of us were actually called by our given names. Since I've come online it's proven to be a boon, despite the fact that I blog under a pseudonym.
I did include links to reputation management tools in my blog post Blogging: Online presence and authenticity that I recently posted a Shameless Blog Promotion thread for, and included them in this thread too.

How long does it take?-
oops wrong spot
-
-
They aint got nuttin on me-
me either
-
oops! wrong place - see below
-
-
- The bottom line here is all they have is what ourselves provide.
For example if you provided information like:
Name, address, date of birth, astrological sign and images then they are all there. And if you provided duplicate information under more than one name then it's all there and cross-referenced.-
yes i realise that but it's also pulling in other info
-
Pulling in other info from where?
-
i otimize a certain way and it's pulled in pictures of some of my friends
-
-
That is pretty cool.-
again as long as it does not show your 'not so best' moments. i could cover my head with a paper bag!
-
-
I found me using my maiden name and my family. Nothing for my married name. My husband was much easier to find. -
They got nuthin on me.
Muwahahahahaha-
Of course they don't. "Anarchist Ninja" isn't a clear enough search term!

None of the stuff that is out there on me is revealing of personal information, but it also wasn't me who put me out there. The links come from organizations I have worked for.
It doesn't cross-reference to cindygeenotes (please, you can call me Jane ;-) so I'm okay with that. But it does underscore a rather important point: If you don't keep work and personal separate, right down to the pictures you choose to use, an employer might be able to follow a thread back to your blog on small powertools and body icing techniques. As long as you work in an industrial kitchen, I don't expect you'll run into a problem with that.-
I agree with you there Jane ;-)I work in a company where confidentiality is very important. that's why i make sure i keep fun and work separate. and even if i do that i always have to be on the lookout with what i do online because what i do is what i am

Nothing. I must be part of either the 0people or the 456people?
