    Default Ever Googled your name?

    Of course you have! Doing a Google search for your name was so 5 years ago. Try doing a search on Youtube for your name. Interesting results. Now you can see what that guy who shares your name looks like. Or girl, if your name is Kelly.

    When I used to Google my name it would come up with some German Brain surgeon.

    Youtube yields nothing but folks with the same last name and...oh look! A lecture by that same doctor!
    Just call me 47

    Did you try just first and last? Sometimes you have to read the descriptions to see why that video was brought up. Youtube your friends with better names if nothing comes up for you.

    Yes and it is a pain in the ass to stay anonymous these days. Takes a lot of work and effort to stay out of searches and databases. I prefer to be a ghost whenever possible but info on most people is very easy to find on the net. Places like SPOKEO you can dig up all kinds of info on someone. You can search by name, email addy's phone numbers, usernames, known friends, known addresses etc. Luckily they also have an opt out option but also let you only delete a couple hits per email address so if you are trying to remove your whole family is can become some work to do so.

    I get a blues band. I already knew about them though. I had a customer who went on vacation to Texas and brought me back a bumper sticker years ago. I also get a MMA fighter. He won in the video.

    And so what's wrong with the name Kelly? Even if I'm a guy? Hmmm? Punk.

    Google your phone numbers now and then too, your email address etc. Then do what you can to clear it off the records. I've been doing this for a few years with good success. Don't put in your screen name from here, everything turns up!

    Sometimes assholes push people down stairs.
    That doesn't mean "stairs are bad" nor does it make someone who pushes someone down the stairs any less of an asshole.
