pollgle

Tell me about the first three pages that you see in the search list when you: 1) google your full name 2) google your FI/H's first name, follwed by 'and' and your first name (eg. 'mel and nick', in my case) 3) google your H's full name.

    1) A facebook page for some German girl that seems to be deactivated, an article from a newspaper that quotes my PhD pilot study findings, a page from a site called 123people about a girl called Saskia which seems to share no relation to my name whatsoever.2) A site for a 'outerwear' company, the snippet and ink post for my wedding, our photographer's flikr page with our wedding photos on it (this is the whole reason I started this poll- I find it incredibly odd that two of the three links when googling 'mel and nick', very common names, actually relate to us).3) The newspaper article that quotes my findings (same as that which comes up when googling my name), a list of everyone with our surname from facebook, and H's linkedin profile.

    Let me guess, you all have the surname smith, first name John? haha. I was surprised with how much actually related to us.

    1. 2 work-related pages and a link to my Blurb wedding book2. A youtube video of 2 skinny teenagers boxing and a couple of FB links to people that have his first name as their first name, and my first name as their last name3. LinkedIn and Facebook pages and his grad student associationThanks for this. I've just discovered that there is a man out there with the same name as my married name (male spelling of my first name). Dangit, I thought I'd be the only one!

    1) random people with my same name. 2) a bunch of randomness.  Mostly people with my first name and his first name as their last name3) DH's magazine reviews and some lawyer in Long Island.  Which is funny because that is where he is from.   Oh and his dad's credit for a movie he did a long time ago.  But DH has no contact with him.  






    What differentiates an average host and a great host is anticipating unexpressed needs and wants of their guests.  Just because the want/need is not expressed, doesn't mean it wouldn't be appreciated.

    1: a linkedin page for someone who is not me, a facebook page for someone who is not me, and a 123people thing without me on it. Apparently there are more people than I thought with my name, one of whom is in the same state as me. I thought I was more unique :)2: Ha, 3 separate pages for someone named Bryan Tracey who apparently lives in Milwaukee. 3. A high school basketball profile for someone who is not him, and two facebook pages for people who are not him.  Kinda weird that none of them that came up actually were us.

    1) google your full nameMaiden: My facebook, linkedin, University directory listing, and I once won a book on a blog. Oh, and it thinks my name is spelled wrong.Married: twitter, facebook, linkedin pages, and my name backwards is a small river in central England 2) google your FI/H's first name, follwoed by 'and' and your first name (eg. 'mel and nick', in my case)A video with Sophia Bush and Heath Ledger, and a British photographer has DH's first name with my first as his last. Oh, and there's a ballad written about us. 3) google your H's full name. There's a fine artist with his name. His name is very generic, so that's the most interesting of the listings.

    1) our engagement announcements - from my parents' hometown newspaper, IL's hometown newspaper, and our college alumni newsletter. 2) one of the engagement announcements came up again, followed by someone on facebook with DH's name, and someone's blog who has the same name as DH. 3) haha - the first is a page of a patent owned by someone with DH's name. DH would LOVE to have a patent! Other pages are random facebook pages... DH has a really really common name!

    My name is so unusual that I don't get 3 pages of results. I basically just have some newspaper articles I rote in college.My FI's last name, oddly enough, is a version of a realy, really common verb, so none of the first 3 pages are about him, specifically.
