14,900 for me. :)
5th one down the list is my G|A profile -- and on the main page there's some I haven't visited in YEARS (Matrix Orbital? I don't even remember what that is -- Digitally Imported? Haven't been to the site in about 3 years). :)
...of course those were profile pages, so I guess it makes sense.

Just Google your real name.
My local newspaper did a story on that called "Ego Searching" and included me in the story. I had Googled my name and found a few online sweepstakes I had won but didn't know about.
Another person Googled their name and found a long lost brother. Another found her Father, not having been in contact with hi for more than 20 years.

1830 for my screen name
1,850,000 for my birth name... and none of them (at least in the first several pages) are actually about me.

833. Surprising since this is the only forum where I use this handle.

1,400,000 and a few are me. Well, a lot are me, but that's because it's my real name. :)

Hmm... 9,620 for me. But keep in mind that this is my real name.
You used to be able to see my Xanga or Geocities account on the first page of searches. Now there's some musician I've never heard of otherwise, and a young Chinese actor it seems.
You see my G|A page on the second page of searches, but still nothing after that.

my maiden name is absolutely unique to my family... don't think there are any left in europe where the name originated, so everyone with that last name stems from the same 1890's immigrants to the US. so i located a few semi-lost relatives that way :)
my married name, i seem to share with a dozen or so extremely talented high school athletes :P last i checked, none of those links belonged to me.
and my g|a name... yep. it's out there. and it's all mine!

But NCIS researched my Handle.. Traced it back to me.. found out where I worked.. and Came and talked to me.. Anyone else been that lucky with theirs?
you don't know how creepy it is for a Government Agent to ask "Do you ever post on the internet under the handle 'Thesifer' ? "
hehe.

Sigh, now everybody knows my deepest desire, to be a professional wrestler.
I took LegendKiller from a book, have been using it since AOL days in 94. Way before that dude did his first suplex (sp?).
Even if you google LegendKiller + GotApex you find references to a smaller review that I did (SuperDigiBin). That one is everywhere!

Most of my username searches are me because I've used this for well over 10 years (originally on the UGO boards back when the Dreamcast was coming out, I was Zero 2 Dash). Eventually I just took out the spacing and made it all lowercase...:shrug:
FWIW its taken from the import Street Fighter game...this being (of course) Street Fighter Zero 2 Dash...in the US they call the series Street Fighter Alpha but in Japan it's known as Zero. Zero 2 Dash was an arcade-only Japan release, eventually released on the Saturn and Playstation in the Street Fighter Collection...in Japan as Zero 2 Dash and in the US as Alpha 2 Gold. I took the name because it was my favorite SF game (until I really got into Zero 3 and started playing Super Turbo all over again). Nowadays...there's so many great SF titles, I can't really hammer it down into a favorite, but I stick with the same name nonetheless. :D
My real name...what's funny is I never thought there'd be someone in the world with the same name as me, but sure enough there is. He's also more famous 'cause he went to college and published some books or something, so pretty much any reference to my real name that doesn't have to deal with video games or art is him, but all the gaming/art references are miiiiiiiiiiiine!!! :)
