people that use your real names on here

i remember that i did a study about how employers sometimes GOOGLE your name to see if you have an account to a social networking site and shit so they can learn about your personal life to see if you're worth hiring

what if, like, they googled your name and found this site? what do you think would happen? i mean the shit we talk about is pretty odd and our (our as in yours. who am i?) adventures are the best in the world. they'd have some competition

I don't really think about it, I guess it would be ultimately better if that happened then I wouldn't be working for a shit boss who spies on employees. Better to be fired and get another job. As it is I couldn't imagine either of my bosses remotely caring about anyone's internet activities

For awhile, when I was younger, I was kind of bummed that I didn't just use my real name as a username like all the cool guys. Now, because of this, I'm pretty glad that I started out with this dorky ass name.

just googled my name, first result is my DAD's facebook page oddly. the second, lo and behold, is a 3dmm.com thread...featuring me saying what my real name is...great.

i remember my Dad was googling our family's names a few years ago "for fun" and said he found posts i'd made at some forum and was going on about how the language was really bad etc etc - he's not usually a SNOOP or anything but jesus that was weird

I don't show up until about the 5th page when I google my name. Mainly because it's a pretty popular name in Ireland. one thing though; always have two e-mail accounts, one for work etc and one for social networking, because I'm fairly sure they search that too.

yeah, googling my e-mail brings up this site.

Matt McGowan is not my real name, either.

PM me if you want to know what it really is.

I can't believe I'm finally doing this haha

My 3DMM.com stuff doesn't show up in the first bunch of results, so I think I'm fine.

My real name is boring enough that googling finds absolutely nothing to do with me, though for a few years googling my address tended to get alot, some college student in Canada used to have a section on his website about my house.

I share the name of some pro skateboarder and a guy who ran for mayor of some district on Victoria Island.

So my name barely shows up at all.
