How do YOU Google?

[toppstuff]

Ever tried Googling your name?

How do you fare?

When I Google myself I get --

Me.

Mainly because I speak at a lot of conferences and so I end up on the agenda,which inevitably goes on -line.

My name also throws up New Zealands leading lesbian singing duo. Which is nice.

So how do you Google?

That's the saddest thing I've ever read

Real name's too common to get meaningful results I seem to spend my time lecturing at universities (Chem Eng and computer modelling) and signing declarations !

'Handle' turns up a worrying result if you 'feel lucky':

Not work appropriate

Not only that, but I'm also a low-ranking Canadian ice hockey player AND I'm a budgerigar fancier who recommends chickweed.

And my name is fairly uncommon.

I was lead guitarist in an '80's AOR band! (But top of the list was someone looking for my e-mail address in 1996).

[borris-bear]

I appear to be playing foolball for a team called De la Salle(?) in Waterford!

And a famous singer in New Zealand!

Apparently my greatest acheivement was that in January 2002 I recieved the rank of Eagle Scout after being a member of Boy Scouts of America since kindergarten, and I continued on to earn my Gold Palm.


Don't remember that !
