DO YOU REALLY EXIST???
JUST GOOGLE IT is a well known command and we all know that GOOGLE has become a commonly used "verb". Just as you are "googling" others--you are being googled!!!
Internet search/research has become a recognized procedure in the hiring process, dating :-), product research, and checking out clients (and they are checking out you). Search has become part of our daily lives!!!
Marketing guru, Seth Godin authored a great blopgpost (2/28/09), PERSONAL BRANDING IN THE AGE OF GOOGLE. He talks about the delights and dangers of how you show up in a GOOGLE search.
William Arruda and Kirsten Dixson are two of the world’s leading personal branding experts, have written a manifesto on this same topic, entitled BRANDING YOURSELF IN BITS AND BYTES found on http://www.changethis.com/. They ask the tongue in cheek question, "Will GOOGLE change the way we name out kids?"
If you are interested in successfully increasing your "GQ" - Google Quotient - I highly recommend reading both of these posts!!! Also there is a MINDOPENING book by Jeff Jarvis, WHAT WOULD GOOGLE DO? (see my 1/26/09 post) which is an absolutely amazing read!!!!
