Bored yet Curious

Lust4Life

Ever Google your user name to see how and where others are using it?
Okay, so I was at work yesterday and was quite bored.

Some old guy is using mine too! And there's some concert using it too!
I feel so used!

G'wan! Google your name and get back to me!

I'm unique

All the results are posts from me on different forums.

Sleepy

Sleepy? I'd imagine I'd just get back lots of Snow White references...

Lust4Life

Yes, Kojak will likely find a reference to a post made here... followed by Atari Jaguar!

Rhyme

Rhyme the man doesn't make much of a dent in Google im afraid...

Vokes

Yeah, lots of ppl using my handle.

But searching only Irish web pages, returns me only :cool:

eamoss

No1 else has my username exp for this guy http://profiles.yahoo.com/eamoss

The Hill Billy

Some dude on myspace (31 years old, Male, SAINT JOSEPH, MISSOURI, US) is using mine.

My entry on boards appears before his in the list though. I win! I win!

bluto63

I googled my old username which I used when I was like 13(sort of do still use it: uracompletetool, I know, I hate it too) and that is unique. I did find some weird stuff I used to do like forums and that...What the hell was I thinking?

connundrum

Apparently there are a few of us about the place.. and no one can spell

I rank #1 in Ireland though!

xzanti

Just links back to boards

I googled my real name , I came up with a famous stain glass artist who is from originally Dublin ....Wow!
also a partner in some accountancy firm, a toymaker also a Christian Minister
It's amazing who you can share a name with!

Angels

200,000 results for Angels. WOW!!

Did the same as CSG. Typed in my real name & came up with a Performer, Photography, A teacher in Foxrock in Dublin

monkeyfudge

I have the top listing and most of the listings for monkeyfudge... I do love the second entry though which is a photo story about a monkey recieving a parcel with some fudge in it. great stuff.

I come up top for my real name too.. but there is also a composer who is the same age as me who comes up... oh and a scumbag who got shot recently pops up too.

Ruu_Old

I get some university in Holland I think and a film called R.U.U.:)

Ha! That's funny! I wonder if Monkeys are like Dogs in that they should not eat chocolate?

This is fun reading the responses!

I haven't tried Yahoo yet. Perhaps I'll do that next.

L4L

Edit: Hmmm leads me to some Beauty Makeover and a site called Love Shack!

the Shades

apparently it's some blues band.

googling my own name only brings references to me

Femelade

They mostly came back to myself here but i did find this too which was kinda weird.

Hanging' with many ladies, femmy over years has lost hours of his life due to a condition known as femalelateyitus which has developed into a severe case of Itsrudetobelateitus which their is no know cure

Lone Wolf

Apparently Im the only Lone Wolf on the the irish pages, but I'm also a motorcycle restoration company (I'm so cool, hells angles here I come).

On the less cool side of things im a software tool for miniature collectors and war gamers, a tree stand fro hunting, a knife company, realty managment system, distributors and a cosmic connections site. Ok maybe the hells angles wont have me after all

Dirk Gently

The elvis lives thread in the cuckoos nest is the number 1 result world wide for clown bag on google.

Black Swan

Well, the Blue_Lagoon name is only unique to boards.ie, as it came from an old Brooke Shields film by the same name. I also live close to a blue lagoon in OC of So Cal while overseas, so I thought it would fit. Obviously, other users of the name come up when Googling. What did surprise me was that a few of my posts on boards.ie came up on Google. Why would anyone want to read what I have to say? What a craic!

Feral Mutant

Googling my username links to my wikipedia user page, stuff I put on boards and various X Men/Mutant X sites.
Googling my real name leads to boards stuff and some guy in the US with the same name as me who works in a law firm.

Tar.Aldarion

Some tolkien hits, other fora hits and some of my posts here on boards.
My thunderdome thread was on the first page.

Terry

1,250,000 results for julep on google.com
i appear in the second result on google.ie though.


my real name brings up a mullingar GAA player.

pat kenny

Ah I'm not gonna even bother.

stovelid

iFight

There's an ifight in pennsylvania, and i got 9740 results total, I didnt bother checkin gpast the first page

Doomspell

I got a link to one of my posts and a good few to, 'The Doomspell Trilogy by Cliff McNish'.

carbonkid

well my boards blog that ive never used got a mention on the first page *yawn*

grimloch

Purely because I was bored, I googled it. A musician came up for the first hit, that was nothing unusual. My blog was there for some reason aswell, again, nothing out of the ordinary.

Then, a few links down, this crap gets tossed up:

http://profile.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=user.viewprofile&friendid=55686920

For the record, that's not me. I can only hope that this is a pisstake. Taking it at face value though, why the hell does some myspace emo rank higher than me and a musician?

dazberry

Got 5 pages, generally all me related , except for some pretender from Leeds and a small bit of internet fluff. Weird thing was a number of people have linked to:
http://members.boards.ie/dazberry/homey.jpg.The swines!

Using my proper name well a few people of note - comic artist, american footballer, Mr Gay UK :eek:, some dude in Novell, some dude in Sun - until I come across a black American Actor, Model and Musician (bet that DD knows how to strut!) who was born 14 years to the day after me. Thought the second coming was only supposed to happen after the first one had finished .

An entire Dynasty of Indian politicians have stolen my name. The oul' fella seemed like a right hippy peacenik, though has a streak of "brits out" in him.

Shall I make a list?:D

I've found a few profiles with mmy avator. Seems like they are pretty much into programming, gaming etc, almost the opposite of me.

Sam Vimes

mine returns a lot of terry pratchett references, ironically enough

my real name brings up a painter from laois and myself as the second result
