If you go on Google and type in your name, what is the first link that comes up? For me, it is the name of a realtor in Texas who happens to have the same name as me. The first "relevant" listing with my name (meaning the first one that is actually about me) is the 11th one, from a writing website.
How about you??

Yes, I think we're all out there more than we realize.
I just checked my Mylot username too- those discussions sure do pop up!

That's awesome when you come up high on the search list. Almost makes you feel famous!

Hi.
I tried it and it was cool.
The first result that showed up was a link to someone with the same name as mine and working in the field of nanotechnology.
I can't find anything relevant to myself in the first 100 results.

Me as a photographer, I'm a surfer and a coach. Apparently I'm the creator of Vice Cream for vegans. Glad to know I'm not really all those people. I guess I could name drop if it meant some notority.
