When you have an odd name like mine, nothing comes up.

On the bright side, nice to know a lot of girls share my name for some reason. Ech.

Actually google my name not only to check on what information is readily available about myself but also to check on relatives.

I've googled my name to find out that "I'm a chinese squeaker" and I'm a professor and scientist at many schools and companies. Awesome :thumbsup:

I'm very easily found by just my name. No other details necessary. Oh well...

This is pretty normal. How many people do you think have your name who went to your school?

You know what else is odd? I can look up my name in a phonebook in the city in which I live! Damn, all one needs is specific information about me to locate me. Interesting...

To be fair, the links also reveal where I worked on campus as well as the people I worked with.

I googled my first and last name: Top 4 results are from my blog. The next page, some reviews i wrote for Amazon, MSN Music and my last.fm page. Wow.

Evidently I make and sell fine glass beads. Don't tell my wife, she'll ask where the money is going. ;)
