Can you Google yourself?

[MacNimon]

How many of you can find a link to (any) one of your posts online by typing in your username, either here or elsewhere, in the Google search box? In less than 5 minutes I've easily found several posts by myself (but none from here) and also Pip: Wayne's Hotclubbing site has a link, but as for Ralph...all I've found so far is this...

Warm and sincere, dignified, or edgy

...and this certainly ain't our Ralph!


Who else can Google themselves?

[Si Hunt]

If I google myself I get, for some reason, a link to a thread called "Si Hunt Probes Your Dental Hygene". Don't remember that one, but it sounds like something I might have written.

Si.

[stuartdg]

My links usually refer to years old reviews on the Doctor Who Ratings Guide

[SiHart]

Yes I can. I'm everywhere it seems.

Si xx

[SiHart]

Actually it was quite intersting to see what it turned up. I appear in several rather unexpected places, and rather worrying ones some of them. I'm a bit concerned at how widely my blog seems to appear- linked to places I wouldn't expect at all. Perhaps I'm just naive?

[WhiteCrow]

It used to be a handy way to find all my old posts on www.werewolf.com

I miss that site, and regularly being called a stupid ****tard by the admins. No wonder OG felt like home.

[Pip Madeley]

My name's all over the place, not that happy with it to be honest but that's the nature of the beast.

[cullsoft]

Although the link at the top of my list is me, a lot of them are for a bunch of yanks with my name. (I did an online search of what was supposedly the electoral roll, and according to it I'm the only Ashley Culley in the United Kingdom!)

However, this page was on the list and has my name down as the page designer... I swear this isn't me, I'd never have let such a lousy web page design have my name on it!

Although I feel very much surprised that one of the results was from PS... :O

[Dirk Gently]

You'll find it difficult to find mention of me anywhere. There are lots of imitations though.

[Jonno]

Thought I'd share these two descriptions which hail from the first page of Google according to my PS user name, as they both made me smile!

In central defence, Jonno jumped strongly and dealt well with balls from the centre ... In the first half Simmons was often too far away from his man when ...

My Simmons is nearly as bright! Probably cos you bought the VX1. Bottom of the range Jonno. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/good.gif) ...

[Lissa]

We once Googled TheArtist's real name and, aside from a film review he'd once penned, the other entry was on a site titled "Best anal sex for Italian Men".

[Jon Masters]

Jon Masters is an Embedded Systems programmer working on Embedded Linux for realtime scientific instrumentation.

With the vast majority of links relating to this, I seem to be one hell of a dull git.

If I google myself I get, for some reason, a link to a thread called "Si Hunt Probes Your Dental Hygene". Don't remember that one, but it sounds like something I might have written.

Si.

It was a thread on Ye Olde E-Z Planet Skaro.

[Arisia]

Using my 'handle', it's pretty much all about the convention in Boston that I used the name of for my handle.

Using my real name, there's a couple website mentions, mostly connected to the convention in Boston, then it moves on to 'dings' referring to car body damage or similar.

[Dave Lewis]

Ignore the guitars, the performance fly rods, and the laminate flooring in Bristol. According to Google, I've got a mighty organ.

Okay, it's not really me, just as neither the famous ice hockey coach nor that geezer who writes the books about Led Zep are me, either. In fact, after twenty pages of solid Googling, I have yet to find myself, although I have found plenty of new Dave Lewis's that weren't populating the net last time I tried this.

One is a 'void engineer'...

[Milky Tears]

My Penis Cries Milky Tears was about fifth on my google search!



No sign of my posts!

[Logo Polish]

Mine brings up a pageful of Poland-related material.

[Carol Baynes]

You get "Bond by Bond" on thevervoid if you type in my name.

[Stuart Wallis]

The last time i googled myself I put my back out.

All Ive managed to find, after wading through pages and pages, is here. Google must have impeccable taste.

[Dave Tudor]

Apart from the 20th-century American experimental composer and pianist David Tudor, all the other Dave Tudors out there sound really dull (leave it!), being engineers and business men and what-have-you. I found a particularly boring-sounding article on 'The fine art of turnkey manufacturing' written by a Dave Tudor (yawn!).

Rather disappointingly, I have also found that putting 'Google' into Google, doesn't actually break the internet.

Rather disappointingly, I have also found that putting 'Google' into Google, doesn't actually break the internet.

I was wondering who'd be the first to try it!

[Ian Lethbridge-Stewart]

My name comes up quite a lot, but it's hardley ever actually me. There's a banjo player with my name (my God it's everyones worst nightmare). There's also some bloke going on about porn - it's not me honest!!!!

If you put my name in Google images - sometimes pictures of me playing in the jazz band on various gigs appear - thanks to some weird bloke who writes about jazz bands that he sees regularily in his blogg.

[shada pavlova]

My username, googled, comes up with the biography of the actor James Fox, who was in the BBCi remake of Shada and some film called Pavlova.

Stands to reason, really.

[Pip Madeley]

What's your real name though?

[shada pavlova]

Adolphus Edgbaston Querting Trollope-Fudge.

My friends call me "Quert".

[Pip Madeley]

I can see why you prefer Shada Pavlova.
