Here's the ultimate geek thing to do -- searching your name on the internet. One of the first sites that popped up with my name is the following -- http://www.ratm.iq.pl/ (definitely NOT SAFE FOR WORK OR CHILDREN). I was shocked to see my name in full view in the use of a porn story. Now, I'm wondering if it's someone I know...which is scary to think.

I also learned my name is a lot more popular than I thought. For instance, I'm a famous singer from the Dominican Republic.

yes, i have googled my real name a few times and only come up with search results of genealogy websites. i use a different name when broadcasting, but it's the same as a literary character. so references to myself aren't at the top of the results.

what i'm wondering most about that site is who writes sex stories with full names. doesn't a first name suffice enough? oh well, a funny story.

Yeah!! Cuz I think my name is the only full name used which makes it that much more weird.

I'm the only one of me in existance. And, boy, it feels like it alot of the time.

I was googling old junior high classmates a few days ago. I found out that one of the bullies works at TGI Fridays and is in a terrible screamo band.

I found my ex-fiancee's name on a brain tumor support site once.

Don't know where she lives now, so don't know her health status. But that was unsettling.

I haven't done this in a while, usually I'll get my own site, but now I'm also responsible for the literary gems "No More Mr. Nice Guy" and "Hallelujah Fatkid".

Also, oddly enough, is a page with no information other than the note that it was edited on November 17th, 2004--one day after my birthday.

I own Absolutely Kosher.

I also hit the site announcing some advertising awards I've won--these are real, and I have plaques to prove it, unlike my other "achievements".

And even better is this one: I've written about The Aural Dimension.

There are a surprising number of Andrew Beattys in the world, and I do not top the google list of them. There is:

As you could probably guess, I am the only " Todd Leiter-Weintraub" listed on Google. I have 163 listings, and all are related to one of four things:
1. My music/band(s)
2. My work in the ad business (awards, etc.)
3. My marriage records
4. My postings at CMJ BBS

I had googled my name before, and the top results were for a major league baseball player. This wasn't a surprise, as some kid gave me this player's card when I was in the 4th grade or so. I don't think the guy was a very good player.

When I search my first and last name, nothing.

When I use my middle initial as well, I get tons including pages at:

-The Hidden Song Archive
-Audioscrobbler
-Belle And Sebatian's official website Q&A
-Spiderfan.org
-Amazon.com: A list by...
-And an old website I ran for some friends' band

At least none of you guys are in porn.

Well, erm, not girl-on-boy/woman-on-man porn, anyway....

Mine just returns my website and then my fonts I used to create scattered over the thousands of font sites out there. 3,730 entires total.

you get that list of all the people i graduated with and my website. boring.

I'd forgotten Scotland actually used to win games!

i would hate to think how long it would take me to look through all the sites that have my name...

we did manage to find an old high school friend who is now apparently one of the top "golden tee" players in OH

http://chronicles.dickinson.edu/student ... /Labar.htm

ahahah.

Rather sad that after all her schooling, once she married, she became a housefrau. Maybe she wore the pants in her family.

If I put my full name with maiden I get tons of stuff on my family members, nothing on me.

Married, nothing.

Formerly married, and I dig deep, the only thing that comes up is some really weird post I made to a message board when I was a housewife years ago and a very big New Radicals fan.

If I put my CMJ name in-posts and a review I made on some review site I can't remember the name of but that we all were on a couple years back, that I made of a Joseph Arthur cd.

I suck.
