Here's something entertaining: enter your name in the following formats into Google:
"[Firstname] [Middlename] [Lastname]"
"[Firstname] [Middle initial] [Lastname]"
"[Firstname] [Lastname]"
Post the number of results here. For me, I got 0, 0, and 4, respectively. The 4 were from two consecutive contests I won. Hooray.
My grandfather, however, I got 24 results with "Nicholas deBelleville Katzenbach", 40 results with "Nicholas d Katzenbach", and 1450 results with "Nocholas Katzenbach". Look him up. Photos with presidents, book reviews, movie reviews, bibliographies, etc. Hooray.

Your names a bit more common than mine. Crago isnt all that common of a last name anyway, its Irish, and its been changed at that.

Hehe, I wouldn't consider "OneFishDown" a common name either, but:
Searched the web for OneFishDown. Results 1 - 7 of about 12. | |

=4,610 "[Firstname] [Middle initial] [Lastname]" =127,000 "[Firstname] [Lastname]" =127,000 I guess 127,000 must be the limit. I knew Id get a lot of results with the second and third ones. My first name is common, my middle initial is "A", and my family has a reasonable amount of "famous" people in it. Im guessing most of it was generated by the fact two of my uncles are on the Australian cricket* team. (Thats not bragging or anything, since I hate sport) I was worried about the "[Firstname] [Middlename] [Lastname]" format, since my middle name is pretty unusual. *I cant for the life of me remember how to spell cricket, man I suck. | |
Theres no limit on results on google, Ive searched for words like "the" before, and gotten results in the billions.

"[Firstname] [Middlename] [Lastname]" 0 "[Firstname] [Middle initial] [Lastname]" 0 "[Firstname] [Lastname]" 0 I'm totally unpopular. Foomer, however, returns 82 results. Some of them are actually refering to me. | |
Heh. I'm a town in the country of Cameroon, Africa. I get 600 new HIV/AIDS infections a day! Aren't I special?http://www.onlinedemocracy.ca/Cameroon/health_issues/ tiko.html
Also, I'm a cat! http://www.testardi.com/rich/tiko.htm Plus, I'm a watch! http://www.timemark.hu/tikotime/tikotime.php3 Heh. I'm so lucky. :P | |
0, 0, and 276.
The first result that came up for the latter was for this guy: (It didn't come up with this exact page, they've restructured the site since Google last looked at it.) http://www.classics.ox.ac.uk/faculty/directory/ buscard.asp?IDno=136 I'm an Oxford professor and I didn't even know it! =D (I actually went through all the results, except for the omitted ones that are apparently "very similar" - I'll take Google's word on that - and every single one is about the Oxford professor. Not a single entry about the Australian-dwelling BYOND programmer! I feel so unloved...) Searching for "Crispy" turns up "about 299,000" results. No surprise there! | |
Wow, I'v been to Lexington, and I died there! You thought you killed me George, but I'm back!
http://www.publicbookshelf.com/public_html/ Our_Country_vol_2/williamf_fh.html I also started my own family - http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.com/~mroman/french.htm Hey, someone knows about me and Mary more than the last page! http://members.tripod.com/~ntgen/bw/french_index.html Yet again, another tree on me! http://fergie34.tripod.com/french.htm Irish eyes are smiling! http://www.wslandandcattlecompany.com/ws9.htm Many more websites with my name in them, too many to post, and I hope the first one wasn't a bad omen. <<>>Kusanagi<<>> | |
I came up with 0, 0, and 8... two of which were archived posts to a mailing list I belonged to ages ago.
"Flick" comes up with about 1,310,000 results. | |
"Jimm Pratt" shows up 7 times - all me! =)
"digitalmouse international" shows up 7 times - all me! =) "digitalBYOND" shows 19 times - all me! =P | |
i got 11, 20, 1,750.
On the first one, the first link there, Apparently, Ive been sued by the FBI or something like that. On Airjoe, i saw myself on BYOND and an "Air Joe Bender" in a "Silly Goose Toy Store". Great. Airjoe action fingures! | |
I got 0,0,9, none of which were about me ^_^

"[Firstname] [Middlename] [Lastname]" Not a one, with either my full or abbreviated first name. "[Firstname] [Middle initial] [Lastname]" Again, none. "[Firstname] [Lastname]" 365 with my abbreviated first name. Only one that I saw actually referred to me, unless I secretly formed a punk band in the 70's and was traded to the Detroit Tigers for $9,000,000. Not abbreviating my first name gives 40, most of which are junk, but two point to the Dreamoor page. Yay. My grandfather, however, I got 24 results with "Nicholas deBelleville Katzenbach", 40 results with "Nicholas d Katzenbach", and 1450 results with "Nocholas Katzenbach". Look him up. Photos with presidents, book reviews, movie reviews, bibliographies, etc. Hooray. He got an honary degree at Princeton? Pffftt... What, not good enough for a real one? -AbyssDragon | |
