Vanity search
I've actually never thought of searching my name on Google simply because I know there's nothing on the web about me. After my professor swore that there IS something about everyone, I actually became a little interested. I searched my name on Peekyou.com, but actually had no luck. I then searched my name on google with no lucky until I added "olympia" then there it was, my facebook as the first result. Because I have nothing embarrassing or personal on the internet, I'm not really bothered if people were to search my name, but I know there are people out there that would have an issue with it. There was actually a woman who tried to sue Yahoo because she had a problem with how her name showed up in the results. Her case was dismissed.

Yeah I think that if you don't have nothing to hide then you have nothing to worry about. But it's difficult to have your facebook friends to not put pictures or information up about you. Today, we really got to be careful because anything can come back to haunt us.
