Google This

When I googled myself, I was surprised at how many people shared my name. My name came up with 32,000 results, and I couldn't find one that was actually me through the first 10 pages. I guess this can be both a good thing and a bad thing. I don't have a big internet footprint, so an employer who searches for me wont find anything bad. However, someone searching my name could also mistake someone else for me. I don't really understand today's obsession with being easily accessible. Putting your name out on the internet for everyone to see, while allowing for more networking and the like, also puts you at risk for identity theft and other unwanted things from people you don't know at all.
