Do you Google yourself? - Blu-ray Forum

Stephie_is_a_dork · 05-30-2009, 10:49 AM

I was bored...so I Googled myself! It was my first time, I swear! LOL...I had 2 pages of results for "StephieRawks" alone! I found accounts on websites I haven't used in years too. Some celebrities even pay people to Google them daily!

So, do you Google yourself? Be honest!

cartman781 · 05-30-2009, 12:30 PM

I have a few times but I usually don't find much, just mostly other people with the same name.

P@t_Mtl · 05-30-2009, 12:54 PM

No! First my last name is so rare to start with plus I never use Google, if I were to try it it would be with Yahoo

PH3AR · 05-30-2009, 02:17 PM

I googled my name a couple of times, and all that comes up is a retired Cavialers Center, that was there all time leading scorer until lebron, and he has the same name so i guess thats kinda cool

mikejet · 05-30-2009, 02:21 PM

I gave and apparently I share the same name with a Filipino doctor. Also, my name isn't as unique as I thought it was.

toef · 05-30-2009, 02:29 PM

I've done my real name, but don't bother searching for things like "toefer". My real name is the same as a not-too-famous country singer, and he own the domain name for my name.

bongzilla · 05-30-2009, 09:11 PM

Yes, and there appeared to be a few guys with my name where
I never lived.

Diesel · 05-30-2009, 09:30 PM

once, turned out there were three people in my city with the same name

jbig31 · 05-30-2009, 11:10 PM

Yes with no special results. Whenever we get a new phone book I check my name out too.

Hammie · 05-31-2009, 03:21 AM

I have a few times but result never really changes. My life to too static.

Either that or the Witness Protection Program is really that good.

I do, however, Google my kids teachers and some of their friends parents to see what I can find.

pacificvibes · 05-31-2009, 03:33 AM

I googled myself and there was a guy who served in Iraq who was killed in action, we have the same first and last name. I kid you not. I nearly sh!t myself when I saw it on the news.

Shaq, Nash and Vin?

mikejet · 05-31-2009, 04:53 AM

What sucks is when there is someone with a similar or same name that works for a company that you start working at so instead of your email being your first initial and last name they need to change it.

Some doofus on the Home and Gardens network has the same name as me. That's about it.

ugh!

JJ · 05-31-2009, 09:11 PM

Well, I've used the same username for anything I've ever done online, so JJxiv1215 is out there - everything from Blu-ray forums, AVS, CBS Sportsline, to back in my early days a kid on the interwebs, back when I played Mechwarrior4 online and Magic The Gathering in mid school.

Moviefan1203 · 05-31-2009, 10:25 PM

I have Googled myself before, but I have never gotten anything realistic. It's fun to do, but that's about it.
