Vanity Search

This ought to be fun!! What possible search sites and search engines could possibly have any background information on me? Let's find out.

I began my search on Google and boy, what a feast. The first few results that came up were a wiki page on Wikipedia about a guy with my first and last name who was an Australian former rugby league player, another guy with my first and last name's blog, and another guy with my first and last name's website dedicated to showing off his different styles of art. Even when you go through the first few pages brought up by my name, you won't anything about me on Google.

I continue on to another popular search engine known as Yahoo! Search and pretty similar results that I got on Google showed up: The Australian former rugby league player with my name, another guy with my name's blog, and another guy with my name's website dedicated to showing off his different styles of art. So pretty much, two busts on finding myself online so far.

As I moved my search to a search site called Intelius, which is said to have a lot of background information, I was really counting on this site to having some type of information on me. Surprisely, NO!! However, when I typed in my dad's name in the search, I was able to find some pretty detailed information Intelius says they have on him. Scary!!

I decided to finish my search on this other search site my College instructor happened to tell us about called peekyou.com, which is supposely said to find SOMETHING about you. I figured it was only a matter of time before some kind of search site would find me and show me on the first page of there search. This site happened to pick up on my MySpace account, which has a picture of me. However, it was wrong about my age being 19 as I turned 20 around a month ago.

Wow. I'd say it is pretty difficult nowadays in today's technological world to not have associated yourself somehow on the Internet be it MySpace, Facebook, a Blog, or a Forum Post. Unless you totally avoid the Internet. That'd be crazy!!
