And did you get any results?
I did, there is an article I am mentioned in on Crikey which is a bit weird (to do with DH's job and mine).
For my maiden name, nothing :dk:

I never use my full name anywhere, no real reason tho. One thing I knew would come up, and It did. Then there was my name on a competition winners page from 2001 LOL
Searching the username I use tho, god, I had know idea I have signed up so many places, reading some posts, I don't even remember posting some of them :blush:

Nothing exciting came up with my maiden name but with my married name a whole heap of music magazines came up with DJ Tache....i should've known.... :( He's more exciting than me! But it gives me a little warm fuzzy feeling inside knowing that my hubby's advertised in mags!! :) Almost makes us feel famous!!

I have 10 matches (they are the only matches, not surprising really, I have a very unique name). They are all to do with singing things I have done.

I have a few press releases and articles on the net with my name on them so I know I am out there somewhere! There is also an actress with the same name as me as well so she is the main one which comes up when I google (which is funny seeing as I went to drama school and was considering the same career path so I wouldve had to change my name - lol).
I have heaps of matches seems I am a big porn star in the states!!:faint: well someone that shares my name anyways LOL My maiden name tells me I am a big wig in computing :IE:

nothing comes up in goole with my name, I love my last name since i got married, so hard to spell and even when you spell it to people they get it wrong *L*
hubby has a few things to do with Uni here in South Aus on google. I think I was a nun with my maiden name when I searched once.

My name (which is an unusual one due to hubby's german background) has two pages of results which are all me.. thanks to various work I have published on the net and the business I was running. Wish I could remove them though.

I've never thought to do that before...it was fun :jump:
Aparently I'm a soccer coach and very much into selling realestate in the US. I own two different realestate business's with two different husbands! :D
Using my maiden name I work on the city council in Campbelltown, I have my own Jazz label and I am sooooo into womens basketball. :clap:

i google my name and friends and my families names frequently.
my name pops up in australia due to my web site, articles that i have written and press releases to do with my business, and even gets a ranking the standard google.
what is weird though is there is about 2 0r 3 other colleen condon's out there, another one in the us is some sort of politician, there is a college professor and a student or two.
weird.

With the name that I have now I am an Australian male actor who has appeared in No 96 and a few other shows.
OMG. I didn't know I was a male!!!!!
Maiden name, nothing. First marriage name, nothing!!!
Through the zabasearch - there are 38 of me in the USA, but only 1 with the same middle initial.

Google is a search engine www.google.com You type your name into the box and it will bring up any instances of your name on the internet (different web pages that contain your name).
