I was reading an article in the NYTimes today about how employers are starting to screen potential employees by doing "background checks" using Google to see what information they find out... and how some recent college grads are getting bumped right out of the applicant pool because of the naked, drunk pictures posted on their MySpace site. That got me thinking. Is there anything about -me- out there? I don't have a MySpace account, and my name is so freakin' popular, I've got nothing to worry about. How boring. So I started Googling people I know/have known to see if I could come up with any dirt. Found some! Not that it's truly "dirt"... but it's certainly the best 'gossip' I've read all day. |
