Default Do you Google yourself?

This kind of sounds dirty, but do you Google yourself and how often? :joke:

I have done it.
I have a fairly common name, so I get nothing but irrelevant results.
My phone number is listed, so when I google that, I find out my name and address (somewhat disturbing).
I don't make a habit of it though. I hear it stunts your growth. ;D

I'm out there a couple of times for my business and a couple of times for running race results (nothing to brag about!). Doesn't hurt to check every now and then to make sure there is nothing malicious.

KathieI? Your motto could be-- "I chat, so therefore I am". :joke:

One of the things I got when I googled myself was my caption entry for this cartoon. http://www.sptimes.com/2004/07/23/Fl...e_family.shtml

Never mind which one of these caption entries is mine but one of them is.

It is kind of hard to get an Internet stain out. I Google myself mainly to check and see if something I e-mailed to somewhere or other in my many battles for information for survivors of crimes-- and some people's apparent response to this international activity-- shows up under my name.

I did receive 24 nominations to Marquis Who's Who books from 1992 through 2002 so I must have been having some kind of an impact. I am using my Marquis Who Who in the World 12th Edition, 1995 along with other books to help prop up my bed to curb my acid reflux problem.

I had asked some people like the couple who run Snopes.com back in 2002 and 2003 for help with this which I deeply regret now. Unfortunately, Google does not remove stuff at your request which they pull up through their search engines. You have to ask the entity-- like Snopes.com-- which put this onto the Internet to remove it.
