Are you the first listing when you google yourself?
When I google my first and last name, in quotes, the first entry is a page on the America's Most Wanted site. Apparently I'm wanted in New York on two counts of murder, and I've made that state's 100 most wanted list.

How about the rest of you? Is your first google entry a link to a page that's actually about you?

2. Yes, with quotes or without.
And obviously, my name was in space ... Can't remember submitting this one.

4. I've been told that about my name as well
Apparently my name is pretty common, but still, sending names into space like that is pretty gimmicky.

6. My name's not common.
I just don't remember sending my name into space. And ... wasn't that the one that came crashing down? :scared:

5. I am second, third, fourth and seventh
in the top ten. But I've noticed this tends to change, I guess depending on traffic.

I have several more on the second, third and fourth pages.

7. Yes, and it links to quite a shiteous picture of me
No one else in the world has my full name (a very unique last name -- I know everybody who has it, really), so I can't try to deny that it's me in the picture. Thankfully it's kind of blurry.
