I found one other person with my ID. I am not sure she's a porn actress but it doesn't look like a "nice" site. But, it's in French, so who knows?

Saw a chat show last week where the actor Kevin Bacon admitted to searching for material about himself on youtube.com and his googlegangers on Google. His search on youtube.com quite surprised him. It came up with this result:

[ Link deleted. Pornography may be offensive to some readers -- MM ]

Kevin laughed when he saw it. I always imagined he had a good sense of humour.

I have no Googleganger and I don't whether that's good or bad. By the way, how important is it for you to have information about your person googleable?

PS: For some reason my Firefox spell checker rejects the words 'googleganger', 'googleable' and most funnily even 'Firefox'.
